The 5 Steps Of An Organic Acids Test

The human body is wonderful in the way it operates, don’t you think so? Years ago when I was a student in school, my all-time favourite subject was Biology. 

When the professor would talk about the pathways in the human body and describe them in detail, I could only be fascinated with just how intricate and detailed each process was. 

What caused me to have to take an Organic Acid Test Australia?

A few months back, I truly understood the impact of these biological pathways when I visited my doctor. I booked an appointment for a checkup as I felt fatigued all the time and couldn’t see a viable cause. 

She immediately suggested that I may have a metabolic disorder and prescribed me some pills for the same. I was later telling a friend of this and she recommended My Vital Health Solutions, stating that they had managed to get her on the right path when she was experiencing discomfort. 

I did not see any harm in trying naturopathy to alleviate my problems since the best part of going natural is that there are no side-effects.

 Naturopath Domenic Pisanelli gave me his full attention and time and took the pains to understand my clinical history and lifestyle. After this close consultation, he recommended that I go in for an organic acids test.  

The science behind an Organic Acid Test Australia

When one consumes a meal that is rich in protein, the body starts to break down these large molecules through various pathways. A prime element that facilitates the breakdown of these molecules is enzymes. 

Enzymes are important.

When there is a discrepancy in their numbers or functioning, the molecules are not broken down efficiently. 

Thus, what remains are organic acids – the materials that are the building blocks of the large protein molecules. 

These organic acids are then excreted in the urine and they can be measured to ascertain any metabolic disorder. 

A Naturopath Organic Acids Test

Organic acids comprise large molecules that cannot be reabsorbed by the kidneys and are thus secreted in the urine. 

A naturopath organic acids test involves the urine being tested for biomarkers. Here is a step-by-step procedure of how it works.

• A urine sample is collected and sent for testing. 
• A technique of chromatography is employed and the organic acids are determined according to their adsorption in the chromatographic process. 
• The concept is that organic acids are intermediates of various metabolic pathways. 
• An organic acids test interpretation will provide information on the level of the acids found in the urine. An excess will help determine if that pathway is functioning normally. If not, diet can be adjusted accordingly.  
• A urine organic acids test can thus help in correcting the metabolic pathways. 

Once the results of my test were back, Naturopath Domenic Pisanelli recommended a diet that was rich in certain components, as he said that this would solve my tyrosine metabolic problems. 

I am grateful to him for the efficiency with which he and his team conducted and interpreted my urine organic acids test. 

Today I can safely say my health problems have improved considerably and I am much more aware of how the foods I eat impact my metabolism. 

Thank you, My Vital Health Solutions!
