About the Organic Acids Test
The Organic Acids Test measures a broad group of substances used in the body’s basic metabolic processes. When you analyse organic acids, you gain insight into how your body uses nutrients from food and converts them into energy (ATP). This process involves enzymes and their cofactors. If you lack these cofactors or if the enzymes are not working optimally, certain substances may accumulate. Measuring these substances’ concentrations can reveal potential vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Additionally, metabolic products of neurotransmitters in urine can indicate stress hormone imbalances, and dysbiosis markers may point to bacterial imbalances in the gut.
The health benefits of Organic Acids
Organic Acids have various health benefits such as:
- Maintaining the cellular integrity of the gut lining
- Improving digestion
- Reducing inflammation
- Improving the absorption of proteins, amino acids and minerals.
- Protecting the immune system by providing energy and regulating metabolism
It is important to have a decent amount of Organic Acids in the body, not too little but also not too much, as too many Organic Acids can cause side effects like nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea. Consult with your healthcare provider about whether you should take supplements or make dietary changes after receiving your Organic Acid test results.

Urine testing is highly effective, because organic acids are found in high amounts in urine. The special lab techniques separate the acids out to analyse them. If you may have a metabolic imbalance, it may show up as abnormal organic acids in your test results.
