metametrix organix test (picolinate/quinolinate)
« on: December 11, 2012, 12:06:13 PM »
i had a nutritional and metabolic test done, called organix, by metametrix.

they ound some problems with neurotransmitters, epsecially picolinate and quinolinate. they are resposible for inflammation, among other things, and it was suggested to supplement with magnessium, fish oil and avoid protein.

this is information about the test. goto figure 6 to see what im talking about.

this is a sample report.

neurotransmitters
my quinolinate was high 4.3
my picolinate was high 8.5

methylation
my methylmalonate was low 0.4
my formiminoglutamate was medium 0.7

im not sure what it all means. i asked for a pdf version of my report, but havent gotten it. but here is info and a sample report so you can see what it looks like, and so you can understand it.
