Amino Acids Profile (AAp – Plasma)
As the building blocks of proteins and polypeptides, amino acid levels can impact metabolic function and cardiovascular, brain, and immune health. Evaluating amino acids in plasma allows practitioners to view key metabolic pathways, identifying areas of dysfunction that can be early predictors of disease. This profile uses a systems-biology approach to evaluate essential and non-essential amino acids in plasma – pinpointing areas of insufficiency, excess, or dysfunction that have been associated with a wide range of conditions.

Tyler Patten
Updated personal bio: --- Hi, I'm Tyler. I'm a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, and I live in Utah with my wife and kids. I got into psychiatry because I kept seeing people who were doing everything right and still not feeling better. That's what pulled me toward root-cause medicine: the gut-brain connection, nutrition, hormones and inflammation, alongside traditional psychiatric care. I split my time between inpatient psychiatry and my own telehealth practice, Affordable Psych. Outside of work you'll usually find me rock climbing, hiking, backpacking or camping. Everything in this store is something I use and recommend to my own patients.
