Understanding the Nagalase Blood Test

The Nagalase blood test is a vital tool in both traditional and functional medicine. This test measures the level of Nagalase protein, an enzyme found in the blood. Nagalase can interfere with the immune system’s functioning, making its monitoring crucial for maintaining health.

Why is the Nagalase Test Important?nagalase blood test tube

In the medical realm, elevated Nagalase levels are often associated with certain health conditions, including viral infections and some types of cancer.

In functional medicine, understanding Nagalase levels can provide insights into the body’s immune system performance. Nagalase also can influence how vitamin D is processed in the body which is important in functional medicine treatments. Identifying abnormalities early can lead to more effective management of health conditions.

Reasons to Consider the Nagalase Blood Test

Ordering a Nagalase blood test is a proactive step towards taking control of your health. It’s particularly recommended if you are experiencing unexplained symptoms or if you want to monitor your immune system’s health.

Nagalase (Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase)
  • 0.32 – 0.95 nM/min/mg​
Measures the activity of Nagalase in blood. High: High levels of Nagalase can indicate the presence of certain cancers or viral infections, reflecting an increase in tumor burden or viral activity.

Low: Low levels might be associated with genetic conditions like Schindler/Kanzaki Disease or indicate a lower burden of disease or effective response to treatment.


A study on PubMed found that a special protein in our blood, called Nagalase, might be important for figuring out if someone has a certain kind of cancer. Usually, this protein is not found in healthy people, but it may appear in those with cancer. This makes Nagalase a helpful tool for doctors to understand how serious the cancer is and how it might change over time.
