Metabolomix+ from Genova is a two-in-one organic acid and micronutrient panel that evaluates metabolic function and nutritional status extensively. Metabolomix+ requires non-invasive sample collections from the patient, and the test panel is customizable with optional fatty acid, toxic and nutritional elements, and genetic testing options.

What Does The Metabolomix+ Test from Genova Measure?

The basic Metabolomix+ is broken down into three main categories:

• Organic acids assess digestive function, intestinal dysbiosis, mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter status, oxalate production, detoxification, and vitamin levels.

• Oxidative stress markers quantify cellular inflammation and damage to identify the need for antioxidant support.

• Urinary amino acids reflect recent protein intake, assess for protein malabsorption, and identify nutritional insufficiencies that can impair protein metabolism.

Optional test add-ons include:

• Blood spot finger prick to measure red blood cell omega-3, omega-6, omega-9, saturated, and monounsaturated fatty acid levels. Includes ratios and the Omega-3 Index to quantify cardiovascular risk.

• An additional 20 toxic and 15 mineral urinary elements

• Patient-collected cheek swab to identify up to four genetic SNPs (MTHFR, COMT, TNF-a, and APOE)

What Makes This Test Popular?
