 The Organix Profile
of urine organic acids
Identifying and Managing the Causes of Chronic Illness
 The Organix Profile provides a view into your body's cellular metabolic processes and the efficiency of metabolic function. Identifying metabolic blocks that can be treated allows individual tailoring of your wellness program that maximizes your responses and leads to improved health.
What is Organic Acid testing?
Organic acid testing is a way to measure whether your body is getting
and using nutrients to drive optimal health. Nutrients are protecting
agents. Just as your car has additives and devices that protect it, nutrients
serve to protect your heart, brain, and other critical organs. Like a car’s
gauges warn of potential problems, your body has certain chemical
indicators, known as organic acids, that can alert you to potential
problems. Also measured are markers that assess intestinal health,
neurotransmitter activity, and detoxification demands. Early warnings
can help you make diet and lifestyle changes that may both extend and
enhance your quality of life.
Many chronic health problems can be difficult to diagnose, especially
when they involve nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, foggy thinking,
gastrointestinal upset, joint aches, sleep cycle disturbances, and more.
Standard medical testing is designed to identify disease states. Organic
acid testing does not diagnose disease; it helps to give insight into the
causes of disease.
Why use the Organix Profile?
The Organix Profiles measure many vitamin compounds that provide
evidence of your need for virtually all B-vitamins. Also included are
organic acids produced by intestinal bacteria and yeasts, as well as
products of detoxification. The Organix profiles will also help assess
specific metabolic dysfunctions that are used to customize a nutritional
program to help you manage those areas in need of support. This allows
an approach that treats the cause of disease, not just the symptoms. The
goal is to identify dysfunctions related to nutritional deficiencies and
correct them before disease is allowed to develop.
From a single urine specimen, the Organix
Profile provides important information for
treating the following conditions and more:
- Anxiety
- Attention and memory disorders
- Autoimmune disorders
- Bloating and gas
- Blood sugar dysregulation
- Constipation
- Depression
- Dermatitis
- Ear, nose, and throat symptoms
- Fatigue
- Headaches
- Hypertension
- Liver Disease
- Mood changes
- Multiple chemical sensitivity
- Muscle and joint pain
- Nausea
- Refux
- Sleep abnormalities
- Weight gain
Why is Measuring Organic Acids Important?
Your body is constantly generating products from metabolic reactions. Modern technology allows the accurate measurement of these metabolic products in urine. Many of the compounds that are found give clues about how your body is working and where specific additions of vitamins or minerals may be needed.
For example, scientific research has shown that a deficiency of vitamin B12 produces high levels of a urinary organic acid called methylmalonic acid. Other organic acids can show deficiencies of vitamin B1, vitamin B6, or folic acid.
This profile measures many such compounds that let us see evidence of your need for virtually all B-vitamins. Also included are organic acids produced by intestinal bacteria and yeasts as well as products of hormones and detoxification.
An Important Test for Chronic Illness
 Many chronic health problems can be difficult to diagnose, especially when they involve nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, foggy thinking, malaise, gastrointestinal upset, joint aches,or sleep cycle disturbances. Standard medical tests are designed to identify disease states. Organic acid testing does not diagnose disease; it helps to give insight into the causes of disease. This profile helps assess specific metabolic dysfunctions. Then we can customize a nutritional program for you that manages those areas in need of support. This allows an approach that is beyond symptom management. Our goal is to identify dysfunctions related to nutritional deficiencies and correct them before disease is allowed to develop.
Organic acids are metabolic intermediates that are produced in pathways of central energy production, detoxification, neurotransmitter breakdown, or intestinal microbial activity. Accumulation of specific organic acids detected in urine often signals a metabolic inhibition or block. The metabolic block may be due to nutrient deficiency, an inherited enzyme deficit, toxic build up, or drug effect.
Simple to order. Take the test at home. Mail to the lab.
No prescription required.
