Organic Acids [OATS] Environmental Pollutant Panel

Our bodies require the correct amounts of vitamins and minerals to act as cofactors for enzymatic reactions. Without enough of these nutritional cofactors, some very important sub-processes, which aid in our body’s self management, are impaired. Organic acid levels will begin to build up and are excreted in the urine.

Organic acid production within the body can be influenced by any one of the following factors listed below;

• Diet
• Environmental toxins
• Gut microbes
• Genetics
• Kidney and liver function
• Medications
• Nutrient status
• Oxidative stress
