Organic Acids Test (OAT)
What is an Organic Acids Test and Why Do You Need One?
An Organic Acids Test (OAT) is a non-invasive urine test that provides a comprehensive assessment of your body’s metabolic function and nutritional status. Organic acids are natural byproducts of metabolism, and imbalances in these markers can signal underlying health issues including nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, toxicity/ mycotoxins, and gut dysfunction.
This test is particularly useful for identifying hidden causes behind chronic health conditions, autoimmune disorders, and neurodivergent traits such as ASD, ADHD, and ADD. It offers a deeper understanding of how your body functions at a cellular level, enabling targeted interventions and personalized care.
Who is this test for? It’s ideal for anyone who:
- has an autoimmune condition
- is neurodivergent, including those with asd, adhd, or add
- experiences chronic fatigue, brain fog, mood issues, or digestive problems
- wants to get to the root cause of symptoms not explained by standard blood tests
- is looking for a functional health approach to long-term wellness
