Nordic Laboratories Metabolomix+ (nutrition and metabolism test)

Metabolomix+ home test

Metabolomix+ is a comprehensive nutrition test that can be conveniently carried out at home. It analyzes key nutritional markers to give you a detailed understanding of your body's needs.

This test helps you determine your requirement for antioxidants, B vitamins, trace elements, fatty acids, amino acids, and even digestive microbes.

Functional nutritional analysis

Organic acids in urine can reveal insights into your health. High levels might indicate metabolic concerns, such as nutrient deficiencies or enzyme issues. Organic acid-disrupting enzymes rely on vitamins and trace elements. Even if your blood tests seem fine, your cellular levels might be off.

Who can benefit?

This test is beneficial for people with:

• Mood disorders or chronic stress
• Mitochondrial dysfunction
• Fatigue, depression, or anxiety
• Inflammatory conditions or related illnesses

Utilizing this analysis, you can personalize a plan that includes dietary and supplement recommendations tailored to your specific needs.

Metabolic focus areas in the Metabolomix+ analysis

Key areas include:

• Organic acids
• Absorption dysfunction
• Cell energy and mitochondrial health
• Neuro mediators
• Vitamin indicators
• Toxin and detox markers
• Protein metabolism
• Amino acids
• Oxidative stress markers
