At- Home Micronutrient Test
30-Minute Health Coaching Call Included
The Micronutrient Metabolic Test creates a personalized approach to optimal health through examining certain biomarkers of genetics, diet, lifestyle, environment,
metabolism and detoxification to make assessments in the following areas; Cellular Energy Production, B-Vitamin and Methylation, Inflammation and Oxidative Stress, Muscle Assessment, Gut Assessment, and Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids.
The Micronutrient Metabolic Test measures ~70+ urinary metabolites, grouped into functional nutrient-metabolism categories such as:
-
Energy metabolism / mitochondrial function
-
Amino acid metabolism & nitrogen balance
-
Oxidative stress markers
-
Neurotransmitter metabolism
-
Detoxification intermediates
-
Collagen & connective tissue turnover
The Micronutrient Metabolic Test measures metabolites in urine — biochemical intermediates that reflect how the body is using nutrients.
Examples:
-
Succinic acid, Lactic acid, Pyruvic acid → linked to B-vitamin function (B1, B2, B3, B5) and mitochondrial energy metabolism
-
Methylmalonic acid → reflects B12 functional status
-
Homocystine, Cystathionine, S-Adenosylhomocysteine → reflect folate, B6, B12 utilization
-
8-OH-dG, Allantoin → oxidative stress markers related to antioxidant nutrient demand (vitamin C, E, selenium)
-
Amino acids (e.g., taurine, citrulline, glutamine) → reflect protein turnover and amino acid metabolism
