A Comprehensive Organic Acids Test for Functional Medicine
The updated OAp™ Organic Acids Profile is a comprehensive organic acids test designed to provide deeper insights into metabolism, gut health, mitochondrial function, and nutrient status.
Additional Analytes. Enhanced Reporting. Greater Clinical Utility.
The OAp Organic Acids Profile is a comprehensive organic acids test that now includes the following new markers and ratios for a more complete picture of overall functional health:
The OAp Test Evaluates Several Areas, Including:
Energy & Mitochondrial Processing, which offers insight into:
Glycolysis
Krebs cycle (Mitochondrial function)
Fatty acid oxidation
Carnitine demand
Ketones
Nutrition for information related to nutritional insufficiencies and:
B-Complex (vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5 and lipoic acid), vitamin B12, B6, folate, and biotin
Dietary intake: plant components and fructose intake
Stress & Mood for analysis of:
Catecholamine turnover
Serotonin turnover
Neurological inflammation
Cortisol and cortisone
Toxic Impacts for insight into the detoxification processes and assessment of:
Oxidative damage
Toxin exposure to xylene, styrene, and ethylbenzene
Glutathione status
Kidney function
Oxalate metabolism
GI Microbial Metabolites for evaluation of gut dysbiosis through analytes related to:
Tyrosine & tryptophan metabolites (protein fermentation)
Polyphenol metabolites (saccharolytic fermentation)
Glycine conjugation
Equol production
Fungal assessment
