Phosphorus Lab Test Interactions

Interactions with Other Substances

  • Alcohol
    Alcohol actually decreases the amount of phosphorus available for use in the body - it causes the phosphorus taken in through the diet or supplements to be less available for the various metabolic processes it is required to participate.
  • Salt substitutes
    Salt substitutes also contain high levels of potassium which may lower phosphorus levels if used long-term (chronically).
