Organic Acids Testing: Unlock Your Metabolic Blueprint for Health

Fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, or digestive issues? It’s time to look deeper.

At Ultimate Functional Medicine, we believe that true healing starts by understanding how your body functions at the cellular level. Organic Acids Testing (OAT) is one of the most powerful tools we use to uncover hidden imbalances and get to the root cause of chronic symptoms.

We proudly offer advanced organic acids testing through two industry leaders:

US Biotek Organic Acids Metabolomic Mapping

Genova Diagnostics Organix Comprehensive Profile

These tests give you a metabolic roadmap—helping us design a precise, personalized protocol for optimal health.

🌿 What is Organic Acids Testing?

Organic acids are small molecules produced when your body breaks down food, generates energy, and detoxifies waste. By analyzing these compounds in urine, we can assess:

Nutrient Deficiencies (B vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids)

Mitochondrial Function & Energy Production

Detoxification & Liver Function

Oxidative Stress & Inflammation

Neurotransmitter Balance (serotonin, dopamine, GABA)

Digestive Health & Dysbiosis (yeast, bacteria overgrowth)

Fat & Carbohydrate Metabolism

This is biochemistry in action. It’s like a metabolic fingerprint—revealing hidden imbalances that traditional bloodwork often misses.

Why is Organic Acids Testing So Powerful?

Organic acids testing bridges the gap between symptoms and solutions by identifying biochemical roadblocks. It’s not about symptom suppression—it’s about restoring balance at the cellular level.

Example Insights from an OAT Test:

Low B-vitamin markers → May contribute to fatigue and poor detoxification

High yeast markers → May explain bloating, sugar cravings, or brain fog

Low glutathione → Suggests oxidative stress and toxin buildup

Impaired mitochondrial markers → May lead to fatigue and slow metabolism

Neurotransmitter imbalances → Could cause mood swings, anxiety, or sleep problems

By correcting these imbalances, we help you optimize energy, focus, mood, digestion, and overall wellness.

Who Should Consider Organic Acids Testing?

If you’re struggling with any of these symptoms, OAT testing could provide the answers you need:

Fatigue, low energy, or burnout

Brain fog, memory issues, or mood swings

Anxiety, depression, or sleep problems

Digestive issues: bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea

Chronic pain, headaches, or inflammation

Skin issues: acne, rashes, or eczema

Suspected yeast overgrowth (Candida)

Weight struggles or blood sugar imbalances

Chemical or mold sensitivity

Chronic illness or complex health concerns

OAT testing is also invaluable for:

Optimizing athletic performance and recovery

Supporting children with ADHD, autism, or developmental delays

Enhancing longevity and disease prevention

"The OAT test was a total game-changer. It showed I wasn’t making enough serotonin, which explained my anxiety and sleep issues. After following Jamie’s plan, I’m sleeping better, my mood is stable, and I have energy again!"
