Organic Acid Test – OATS
The OATS test is a great way to get an overall snapshot of what’s going on in the body. It measures the breakdown products of important nutrients and chemicals involved in digestion, gut dysbiosis, neurotransmission, detoxification, energy production, fat metabolism and methylation. Being a urine test it is easy to do with children, collect at home and have a courier pick it up at your convenience.
This test may be useful for anyone who may suffer from the following conditions:
AD(H)D
Alzheimer’s Disease
Anxiety Disorders
Asperger’s Syndrome
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Chronic Fatigue
Colitis and Crohn’s Disease
Depression
Down Syndrome
Fibromyalgia
Learning Disabilities
Movement Disorders
Multiple Sclerosis
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Recurrent Infections
Tic Disorders
Tourette Syndrome
Gastrointestinal Disorders, Diarrhea or Constipation
OATS testing is very useful on its own, but will also complement other tests involving digestion (CDSA, FMA, lactulose), neurotransmitters, methylation panels, amino acid panels, and gene snip testing.
