Hey, guys! In this video, Dr. J and Evan talk about addressing gut symptoms via organic acid testing. To start with, Organic acid testing (OAT) became very popular amongst functional medicine doctors and dietitians. It is a urine-based test that gives essential information about the functioning of various bodily systems and to identify possible nutrient deficiencies, gut dysbiosis, and more.
Organic acid testing may be beneficial for people whose symptoms have not yet describe through other stool tests, blood work, or urinary hormone tests. It helps give an immense understanding of nutrient deficiencies, mitochondrial function, neurotransmitter metabolism, detoxification abilities, antioxidant status, and gut health, which trained and experienced clinicians can utilize to dive deeper.
Additionally, it helps to identify sub clinically (non-symptomatic) metabolic imbalances to PREVENT chronic illness from developing. Organic acids are results of metabolism that provide insights into how different bodily systems perform. A person who has a chronic health condition or wants to have insight into their general metabolic health is likely to benefit from this test since it only requires collecting a urine sample. Plus, OAT is quick and painless for patients. Also, interpreting OAT results is very complicated, so it’s best to review your results with a health professional or functional doctor who has experience with OAT.

In this podcast, Dr. J and Evan talk about the adrenal glands in our body - to produce certain hormones directly into the bloodstream. These hormones will respond to stress and other necessities to our existence. Also, they are discussing the detailed test needed to identify the root cause of problems and what other materials and hormones are essential to keep our adrenals and body healthy.
The adrenal cortex's vital hormones include: (1) Cortisol - controls our sleep/wake cycle. It is released during stress to help your body to boost energy and better handle an emergency. (2) Aldosterone helps regulate the blood pH by controlling the electrolytes' levels in the blood. (3) DHEA and androgenic steroids are precursor hormones that are converted in the testes into male hormones (androgens) and ovaries into female hormones (estrogens). (4) Epinephrine (Adrenaline) and Norepinephrine (Noradrenaline) are often activated in emotionally and physically stressful situations when your body needs additional energy sources to endure unusual strain.
To support the body naturally, Dr. J recommends using herbs such as maca and ashwagandha. Progesterone, estrogen, and estriol may be fit for a patient. However, it is essential to know that protocols may be different for every patient since presentations and lab results may differ.
