Urine Amino Acids

Nutrition Urine Turn Around Time: 12 Days
Recommended: Contact practitioner before placing order
Turn Around Time: 12 Days

Description

Urinary amino acid (AA) analysis aids in the identification of dietary protein adequacy and amino acid balance. It can also help to identify gastrointestinal dysfunctions, protein intolerance, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, renal and hepatic dysfunction, psychiatric abnormalities, susceptibility to inflammation and oxidative stress, reduced detoxification capacity and many other inherent and acquired disorders in AA metabolism.

Methodology

LC/MS QQQ

When should I use

Useful for:
ADD/ADHD
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Cardiovascular Disease
Depression and Anxiety
Digestive Disorders
Epilepsy
Fatigue
Hypertension
Infertility
Insomnia
Kidney Function
Nutritional Deficiencies
Rheumatoid Arthritis

Other Details

Plasma is traditionally used to assess the status of essential amino acids whereas urine analysis provides more information regarding amino acid wasting and aberrant metabolism associated with co-factor insufficiencies.

A first-morning void urine (FMV) amino acid analysis, with results normalized per gram of creatinine, provides an alternative when a complete 24-hour collection is not a viable option. The FMV analysis is excellent for the identification of marked abnormalities, particularly with respect to gastrointestinal health, inherited disorders in amino acid metabolism and renal function, and can be used for protein challenge testing.
