Description:
Genova Diagnostics Cellular Energy Profile (Urine) evaluates fourteen organic acids that play a pivotal role in the generation of cell energy. Using a urine sample, the test can reveal metabolic distress associated with generalized pain and fatigue, which may arise in response to toxic exposure, nutrient imbalances, digestive dysfunction, and other causes. Simple sample you collect at home and send to the lab. Doctor's orders provided. You receive results. Not Available to New York Residents.

The profile also analyzes mitochondrial dysfunction and acquired errors of organic acid metals.,The Cellular Energy Profile measures a special grouping of organic acids. These metabolites primarily reflect carbohydrate metabolism, mitochondrial function, and oxidation of fatty acids that occurs during cellular respiration.

The organic acids measured in this panel are central components or intermediates in metabolic pathways of energy conversion related to the Kreb (citric acid) cycle and the production of ATP-the cell's main fuel source.
Test requires first morning urine specimen that you collect in the privacy of your home and send to the lab. You receive a copy of the test results.
