Organic Acid Test (OAT)

NAS51214

Hi,

I hope this post is allowed here - apologies if not.

Does anyone have any experience with the the Organic Acid Test (OAT)?

It looks at yeast and fungal, and metabolic deficiencies and whole range of other nutritional and metabolic factors.

We are using this for our young children diagnosed with ASD to explore the "leaky gut syndrome"

This isn't something which I hear about in the UK however, I understand it is a common approach in America and other European countries (I got laughed at by my GP when I mentioned it).

I would love to hear from anyone that has any experience in this area.

Thanks x

    Doctors here don't really consider it as the studies done didn't really support it
