Organic Acid Test (OAT)
A Functional Medicine Approach to Identify & Treat the Root Cause of Metabolic Issues
Organic Acid Test (OAT) provides a comprehensive snapshot of a patient’s metabolic function.
Organic Acid Test measures various metabolites in urine, offering insights into nutritional deficiencies, gut dysbiosis, detoxification issues, and other metabolic imbalances. OAT also includes mitochondrial markers, which are very useful for kids on the Autism spectrum.
Key Features of Organic Acid Test
- Metabolic Insight: Analyzes over 70 markers related to cellular metabolism, giving a detailed overview of metabolic health.
- Nutritional Assessment: Identifies deficiencies in essential vitamins and nutrients, guiding dietary and supplement recommendations.
- Gut Health Evaluation: Detects imbalances in gut flora and yeast overgrowth, crucial for addressing digestive issues and systemic health.
- Detoxification Pathways: Assesses the efficiency of detoxification processes, highlighting potential toxin build-ups.
- Mitochondrial Function: Evaluates markers related to mitochondrial performance, shedding light on energy production and chronic fatigue.
What Organic Acid Test Helps Us Understand:
- Nutrient Deficiencies: Pinpoints specific vitamin and mineral shortages that can be addressed through diet or supplements.
- Gut Dysbiosis: Reveals imbalances in gut microbiota, indicating the need for probiotic or antimicrobial interventions.
- Detoxification Issues: Identifies weaknesses in detox pathways, informing targeted detoxification protocols.
- Energy Production: Highlights mitochondrial dysfunctions, guiding strategies to enhance cellular energy production.
- Oxidative Stress: Measures markers of oxidative stress, helping to tailor antioxidant therapies to reduce cellular damage.
