An amino acid test measures your body’s levels of all the amino acids in the body. They are the basic structural units that make up proteins. They are therefore essential for many functions. These include enzyme synthesis and the formation of the body’s tissues and organs.

Amino Acid Testing can help foresee any problems or deficiencies. Deficiencies can cause not only physical, but also serious psychological problems.

The body’s amino acid levels are the limiting factor for energy management, immunocompetence and for the structure and functionality of the entire organism.

An amino acid test measures the essential amino acids in your body (those that cannot be manufactured by the body) as well as the non-essential amino acids (those that can be created by the body from sub-components). Either a blood fasting or 24-hour urine sample can be used. The results provide valuable biochemical information about many disorders including chronic fatigue, learning disabilities, depression, impaired wound healing and immune problems.
