NutrEval: This test is a comprehensive nutritional evaluation to identify specific imbalances of vitamins, nutrients, and essential co-factors. This profile also provides assessment of gastrointestinal dysfunction and detoxification impairment. The ONE (Optimal Nutritional Evaluation): This test will help you understand your patients’ individual diet and supplementation needs. This panel includes key organic acids to evaluate gastrointestinal function and functional need for vitamins, minerals, and co-factors. In addition, amino acids are measured to assess digestion, absorption, metabolic impairments, and nutritional deficits. Anti-oxidant reserves and the presence of oxidative injury are analyzed. Metabolic Analysis Profile (Organic Acids): This test measures four critical areas of metabolism: gastrointestinal function and dysbiosis markers, cellular and mitochondrial energy metabolites, neurotransmitter metabolites, and functionally important organic acid metabolites of amino acids. The reference ranges for this test apply to children (2-12 yrs) and adults. Amino Acids, Plasma/ Urine: This test quantifies levels of circulating amino acids and their metabolites, and evaluates essential and non-essential amino acid nutrient status in the blood/ urine. It also can indicate functional deficiencies of a number of mineral and vitamin co-factors. This is an ideal test for patients with suspected inadequate protein utilization and other metabolic disorders including arthritis and depression. Elemental Analysis, Packed Erythrocytes (RBC's): This test measures RBC intracellular concentrations of toxic elements and nutrient elements. This is an ideal test for patients suspected of recent toxic element exposure and for evaluation of intracellular mineral nutrient status. |
