NutrEval® FMV
Blood and urine metabolomics profile.

A broad Genova profile using first-morning urine and a fasting blood draw, reporting selected organic acids, amino acids, fatty acids and other nutrition- and metabolism-related measurements.

Order NutrEval® FMV — 12 200 kr

Direct order: kit, Genova laboratory analysis and laboratory report included. The fasting blood draw must be coordinated. Medical interpretation is optional and separate.

The Core Insight

Functional status, not just serum levels

Serum tests and NutrEval use different sample matrices and measurements. NutrEval combines blood and first-morning urine to report selected organic acids, amino acids, fatty acids and other nutrition-related markers.

Some metabolites, such as methylmalonic acid, may add information when interpreted with symptoms, medicines and standard laboratory results. No single value proves whether a nutrient is being used by every cell or explains neurological symptoms or fatigue by itself.

Compare the current analyte list and limitations with the question you want to explore; a broader panel is not automatically the right test.

What It Measures

Six domains, 125+ markers

Domain 01

Organic Acids — Mitochondrial Function

The report includes selected organic acids and related markers. Values do not locate an energy-production “blockage” or diagnose mitochondrial disease on their own.

Krebs cycle — succinate, fumarate, malate
Carnitine and acylcarnitine profile
CoQ10 — mitochondrial antioxidant
Domain 02

Neurotransmitter Metabolism

The panel may report HIAA, HVA, VMA and related metabolites. These measurements do not directly measure brain neurotransmitter function or diagnose a mental-health condition.

5-HIAA — serotonin metabolism
HVA, VMA — dopamine/noradrenaline
Kynurenin:tryptophan ratio
Domain 03

B-Vitamin Functional Status

The panel reports selected metabolites associated with B-vitamin pathways. Interpretation requires clinical context and should not be reduced to a one-to-one deficiency diagnosis.

Methylmalonate — functional B12
Xanthurenic acid — functional B6
FIGLU — functional folate
Domain 04

Amino Acids — 40-Profile

Essential and non-essential amino acids in plasma. Reflects protein digestion, absorption and raw material supply for neurotransmitter synthesis — tryptophan (serotonin), tyrosine (dopamine), glycine (glutathione).

Essential amino acids — BCAA, tryptophan, tyrosine
Glutamine, glycine, taurine
Protein digestion indicators
Domain 05

Essential Fats & Omega Index

The fatty-acid section reports selected omega, saturated and trans fatty acids and calculated ratios. It does not by itself diagnose inflammation or quantify cardiovascular or neurological risk.

Omega-3 index (EPA+DHA)
AA:EPA ratio — inflammation marker
Trans-fats and lipid damage
Domain 06

Oxidative Stress & Minerals

8-OHdG (DNA oxidative damage), lipid peroxides and glutathione status. Essential minerals (Mg, Zn, Cu, Se) and toxic elements (Hg, Pb, As, Cd). The copper:zinc ratio for immune and antioxidant regulation.

8-OHdG — DNA oxidative damage
Glutathione — antioxidant capacity
Copper:zinc ratio
MediBalans Integration

NutrEval + CMA — convergent nutrition analysis

MediBalans offers both NutrEval (functional metabolomic markers) and CMA — Cellular Micronutrient Assay (direct intracellular measurement of 55 nutrients inside white blood cells). These two tests approach the same clinical question from different angles.

CMA asks:

What is physically inside your cells?

NutrEval asks:

Are your metabolic pathways getting sufficient cofactors to function?

When they diverge

NutrEval, CMA and genetic panels use different methods and are not interchangeable. Agreement or disagreement does not automatically prove a deficiency, utilisation problem or genetically compatible supplement form. Any medical interpretation is optional and separate.

Alternative

Metabolomix+

A separate first-morning urine profile. Compare the current analytes and optional add-ons rather than treating it as a urine-only version of NutrEval.

Cognitive Add-on

Alzheimer's Assessment

A separate blood-based neurological biomarker assessment with different scope and sample requirements. Combining it with NutrEval does not automatically provide a diagnosis, risk calculation or intervention plan.

Questions

NutrEval® explained

They use different sample matrices and report different measurements. NutrEval combines blood and urine markers; it does not replace standard testing or prove how every cell is using a nutrient.

They are separate tests using different methods and sample types. Neither one validates the other automatically, and CMA is not included in the NutrEval price.

NutrEval requires first-morning urine and a fasting blood draw. Follow the current kit instructions; preparation, collection location and sample handling are confirmed through the coordinated order process.

Yes. You can start the order directly. The first-morning urine sample and fasting blood draw must be coordinated before collection. Ordering the test does not make you a MediBalans patient.

SEK 12,200 includes the test kit, Genova laboratory analysis and laboratory report. Medical interpretation and treatment are optional, separate clinic services.

Metabolomics — Organix®

Urinary organic acids only — mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter metabolism and detoxification. A focused alternative when the specific question is metabolic.
Condition

Chronic Fatigue & ME/CFS

Persistent fatigue has many possible causes. This guide explains the separate clinic route and when selected testing may or may not add useful information.
Condition

Cognitive Health & Alzheimer's

Neurological biomarker panels are separate tests with their own scope and limitations; combining panels does not provide a complete cognitive assessment.

Sample Report

What your results look like

The NutrEval® laboratory report organises the measured markers into several report domains. It presents laboratory data and guidance; it does not on its own establish a diagnosis or determine treatment.

NutrEval sample report

Six clinical domains

  • 01 Antioxidants — vitamin C, E, CoQ10, glutathione
  • 02 B-Vitamins — B12, folate, B6 and methylation markers
  • 03 Minerals — magnesium, zinc, selenium, chromium
  • 04 Fatty Acids — omega-3, omega-6, saturated fat balance
  • 05 Amino Acids — 40 amino acids including essential
  • 06 Toxins & Organic Acids — metabolic markers
