Organic Acid Test

 Reset Lab: +6421224994

Purpose of Test

Organic acids are metabolic intermediates that are produced in pathways of central energy production, detoxification, neurotransmitter breakdown, or intestinal microbial activity. Marked accumulation of specific organic acids detected in urine often signals a metabolic inhibition or block. The metabolic block may be due to a nutrient deficiency, an inherited enzyme deficit, toxic build-up or drug effect. Several of the biomarkers are markers of intestinal bacterial or yeast overgrowth.

The Organix® Comprehensive nutritional test profile provides vital patient information from a single urine specimen. This organic acids nutritional test is valuable for determining:

  • Functional vitamin and mineral status

  • Amino acid insufficiencies like carnitine and NAC

  • Oxidative damage and antioxidant need

  • Phase I & Phase II detoxification capacity

  • Functional B-complex vitamin need

  • Neurotransmitter metabolites

  • Mitochondrial energy production

  • Methylation sufficiency

  • Lipoic acid and CoQ10 status

  • Markers for bacterial and yeast overgrowth

Cost Price of Test: $558.15 incl gst (this is a wholesale price for clients on a Reset Program)
