ORGANIC ACIDS COMPREHENSIVE

Identifying the cause of chronic illness is the first step toward achieving a favorable outcome.

Integrative clinicians rely on the Organix test to reveal the nutritional and metabolic basis of patient symptoms, just as traditional practitioners might use a serum chemistry to establish a diagnostic baseline. The Organix  test provides a view into the body's cellular metabolic processes and the efficiency of metabolic function. Identifying metabolic blocks that can be treated nutritionally allows individual tailoring of interventions that maximize patient responses and lead to improved patient outcomes.

Organic acids are metabolic intermediates produced in pathways of central energy production, detoxification, neurotransmitter breakdown, or intestinal microbial activity. Accumulation of specific organic acids in urine often signals a metabolic inhibition or block. This may be due to a nutrient deficiency, an inherited enzyme deficit, toxic build-up, or drug effect.

From a single urine specimen, the Organix Profile provides important information in the areas of:

* Vitamin and mineral insufficiency * Amino acid insufficiency like carnitine, Glutathione and NAC * Oxidative damage and anti-oxidant sufficiency markers * Indicators to assess detoxification sufficiency * The best functional markers of B-complex deficiency including B12 and folic acid, * Neurotransmitter metabolites to assess CNS function * Mitochondrial energy production assessment via citric acid cycle components * Methylation sufficiency status * Lipoic acid and CoQ10 sufficiency markers, yeast and fungus, harmful bacteria.

Free radicals (toxins) contribute to Oxidative stress to our cells, which increases our need for antioxidants.

Our Organix test includes a DNA/Oxidative Stress marker to show your individual needs for antioxidants. It also gives an indication of how much oxidative stress your body is under. Toxins, fast food, microwaves, cell phones and stress are just some of the things that can contribute to oxidative stress and cell death.
