What Metabolomix+ analyzes
Metabolomix+ combines multiple nutritional profiles to provide an extensive analysis of essential organic acids, amino acids, and oxidative stress markers. This integrated approach evaluates fundamental biochemical pathways and offers a functional insight into nutritional status, energy metabolism, and detoxification capacity, helping to identify potential nutritional deficiencies or metabolic imbalances.
The test includes evaluation of mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, detoxification processes, neurotransmitter metabolism, and metabolites associated with dysbiosis.
Additional options for fatty acids, urinary elements, and vitamin D can expand the profile to include essential fats, minerals, and nutritional cofactors.
Changes in the patterns of organic acids, amino acids, and fatty acids have been observed in contexts such as fatigue, mood swings, metabolic dysfunction, and cardiometabolic risk.
Metabolomix+ offers a convenient and non-invasive method to explore how nutritional status and lifestyle factors can influence these biochemical pathways and supports a personalized approach to nutritional planning.
Recommended for:
Fatigue or low energy: Feelings of tiredness or reduced stamina that may be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction or insufficient nutrient intake.
Mood and cognitive health: Low mood, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, or memory changes, possibly related to neurotransmitter or amino acid metabolism.
Chronic stress: Persistent stress or reduced ability to adapt to stress, which can influence adrenal function, energy production, or nutrient requirements.
Inflammation and oxidative stress: Joint discomfort, tissue irritation, or signs of oxidative imbalance, which may reflect an antioxidant deficiency.
Digestive function: Bloating, changes in bowel transit, or signs of malabsorption, possibly associated with dysbiosis or nutrient absorption issues.
Cardiometabolic health: Weight gain, blood sugar imbalances, or early cardiovascular changes, potentially linked to fatty acid or organic acid markers.
Nutritional status: Evaluation of functional requirements for antioxidants, B vitamins, amino acids, and minerals that support metabolic pathways.
Metabolic function: Exploration of changes in patterns of organic acids, amino acids, or fatty acids in complex situations affecting energy, cognition, or weight regulation.
Vitamin D – additional option for Metabolomix+ (DDI)
This additional profile for Metabolomix+ assesses vitamin D levels in the body using a simple collection method, from a drop of blood obtained via a finger prick.
The test measures 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH vitamin D), the main circulating form of vitamin D, which includes both vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), and represents the most accurate indicator of vitamin D status in the body.
Due to its long half-life, this marker reflects the total vitamin D intake from diet, supplements, and exposure to UVB radiation (sunlight).
Vitamin D plays an essential role not only in calcium metabolism and bone health but also in immune system function, gene expression regulation, and the functioning of the cardiovascular, muscular, and nervous systems. Low vitamin D levels have been associated, in recent studies, with an increased risk for conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, depression, infections, or neurocognitive dysfunction.
Vitamin D deficiency is frequently encountered and can impact health at any stage of life.
