Organic acids are substances that result from metabolic processes in your body. Analysis of these metabolites from different metabolic pathways can provide immediate insight into important areas related to gut health. The Microbial Organic Acids Test (MOAT), included in the Organic Acids Test (OAT), specifically measures the metabolites produced by yeasts and bacteria. Elevated values on the MOAT may indicate yeast or bacterial dysbiosis.
How could you benefit from this test?
Detect imbalances in gut health that may be causing or amplifying certain symptoms and conditions.
Symptoms and diseases associated with nutritional deficiencies and other metabolic imbalances:
- Anxiety
- autism spectrum disorders
- Depression
- fibromyalgia fatigue
- Gastrointestinal symptoms
- neurological disorders
- Obesity
Report
The Microbial Organic Acids Test report is a useful resource for professionals who want valuable information on gut health, including harmful bacteria, beneficial bacteria, Clostridia species, Candida species, yeast metabolites, and fungi, and general markers of dysbiosis that may be affecting the general health of the patient.
Analytes
The MOAT measures 21 urinary organic acids (including creatinine) as markers of beneficial bacteria, harmful bacteria, Clostridia species, Candida species, yeast and fungal metabolites, and general markers of dysbiosis from an easy-to-use urine sample. gather.
