Details
This profile provides practitioners with the most comprehensive nutritional assessment available by combining several methodologies and biomarkers. The NutraEval® profile evaluates over 125 biomarkers to help you assess a patient’s functional need for antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids amino acids, digestive support, and other select nutrients. Dynamic reporting allows for easy interpretation and clinically actionable results to address a wide range of patient concerns – from chronic health conditions to health optimization and peak performance.

Testing can address a wide range of patient concerns, from chronic health conditions to health optimization and peak performance. The only nutritional testing of its kind – combines several methodologies and biomarkers providing you with the most comprehensive nutritional assessment available. Dynamic reporting allows for easy interpretation and clinically actionable results.
The NutrEval® is both a blood and urine profile that evaluates over 125 biomarkers and assesses the body's functional need for 40 antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, digestive support, and other select nutrients.
Personalized recommendations for nutrients are determined by using an algorithm based on your patient's test findings. Functional pillars with a built-in scoring system guide the need for therapeutic support in areas of methylation, toxic exposure, mitochondrial dysfunction, fatty acid imbalances, and oxidative stress.
The NutrEval Plasma and NutrEval FMV (first morning void) differ based on which sample type is used to measure amino acids, plasma or urine. Genova also offers the Metabolomix+, a similar profile that can be collected entirely at home – no blood draw required.
Which patients might benefit from functional nutritional testing?
According to the World Health Organization, every country in the world is affected by one or more forms of malnutrition. Nutritional imbalances are often root cause contributors to disease. Correcting these imbalances can result in optimized health and well-being of your patients.
Common clinical indications for testing include:
- Mood disorders
- Cardiovascular disease
- Obesity/Insulin resistance
- Fatigue
- Weight Issues/Dietary Guidance
- Malnutrition (often observed in the elderly)
- Maldigestion/Malabsorption
- Athletic performance
- Physical trauma/healing
Testing is not performed in patients under 2 years old.
