Sep 12 2009
Perspectives >>

For this month we are featuring our Amino Acid Profiles! The Amino Acid Profiles measure functions in the body including the formation and maintenance of every tissue and chemical processess affecting both physical and mental function.

Amino acid testing is ideal in individuals with conditions such as chronic stress, depression, poor digestive function, or if low protein diets are consumed. A variety of specimen collection types are available including plasma, urine, and the easy-to-use blood spot. The profiles have been updated with a rearranged analyte listing on reports and include new ratios. The Metametrix Institute has written an article discussing the importance of sulfer amino acids in our diets - read more below!
