Metabolomics.
Biology's diary.

Metabolomics measures the chemical fingerprints of biological processes — the small molecules (organic acids, amino acids, fatty acids) that reveal what is actually happening inside your cells. The NutrEval FMV #3000 from Genova Diagnostics measures 125+ markers across six domains: mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter metabolism, B-vitamin functional status, amino acids, fatty acids and oxidative stress.

Organix® Comprehensive is a urinary organic acids panel focused on mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter metabolites, detoxification capacity and gut microbiome markers. NutrEval (FMV #3000) is the broader metabolomics panel including Organix data plus amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and oxidative stress. Organix is a cost-effective targeted option when the specific clinical question is metabolic and no blood draw is desired.

NutrEval metabolomics is the primary diagnostic tool at MediBalans for chronic fatigue, cognitive impairment, treatment-resistant depression, neurological symptoms and complex multi-system disease. It is the test that answers why — not just what. Krebs cycle organic acid patterns reveal exactly where in energy production the blockage lies.

Yes. The blood draw requires 10–12 hours of fasting. The urine sample is first morning urine. Detailed instructions are included with the kit. Organix® Comprehensive is urine-only and requires no blood draw — suitable when a venous draw is not possible.

Yes. NutrEval requires a blood draw at a local laboratory near you (we guide you on this) plus urine collected at home. Organix® and Metabolomix+ are urine-only with home collection and international shipping. All consultations and results reviews are conducted in English via video call.
