“What Organic Acid Testing Tells Us About Imbalances”
with Lisa Fouladi
March 9th, 2021
The Organic Acid Test has gained popularity among functional health practitioners in recent years. This test measures the levels of organic compounds in the urine that are produced in our body as part of many vital biochemical pathways. Many organic acids result from the metabolic pathways, or chemical reactions, your body uses to transform food into energy, growth, maintenance, and repair of body tissue.
Conventional medical doctors use a complete blood count (CBC) and a comparative metabolic panel (CMP) as general screening tools to help rule out health problems in their patients. In addition to these standard laboratory tests, functional health practitioners use organic acid tests to identify imbalances occurring in the body that may well precede abnormal findings on a CBC or an CMP. Organic acids are products of metabolism that can sensitively identify nutrient deficiencies that lead to metabolic roadblocks.
Organic Acid markers can provide insight into: mitochondrial function/energy metabolism, detoxification status, gut health, Vitamin and mineral adequacy, and more. On our call how organic acids are used in clinical practice will be highlighted.
