🌟 We know how hard it can be to pin down the root cause of symptoms like depression, fatigue, chronic stress, and inflammation.
​When confronted with these symptoms in a patient, one lab test that you should consider is the Organic Acids Test.
​Organic acids are products of the body’s metabolic pathways. Evaluation of these downstream metabolites provides insight into important areas related to gut health, mitochondrial dysfunction, neurotransmitter status, detoxification, and nutritional status.
​This makes organic acid testing a valuable tool to assess the functional need for essential nutrients, diet modification, antioxidant protection, and detoxification.
​This class will help you understand how and when to use Organic Acid in practice, what role it can play in your treatments, and how it can be used in conjunction with other testing modalities.
​Join us on May 10, 2023 as Lindsay Goddard, MS RD, a Clinical Educator for Mosaic Diagnostics teaches us about the clinical importance and utility of the Organic Acid Test.
​You'll Learn:
​1. Understand the utility of Organic Acid in practice
2. ​Know which populations would benefit from it.
3. Identify common elevations and trends within the test
4. Discuss general recommendations based on results
5. Learn how to use it alongside other testing.
​​​This free course is hosted by Rupa Health - the best way to order, track, and get results from 30+ lab companies in one place. Sign up for free at www.rupahealth...

This is one of the best videos available on how to interpret the oat

[@jen-g5u8s]

great video! Wondering, regarding oxalates and food, say you ate a ton of spinach the night before the test, wouldn't that affect your results?

[@Jehrica3]

Thanks, GOD bless!

Can't see the test very blurry
