24 Hour Amino Acid test question

[Guest guest]

Hi,

We had a 24 hour amino acid test run on our son to see if he needed

any additional aminos supplemented. When the test came back there

were several items that were in the red low. But the thing that jumps

out is one item that is over the top high. It's Alpha-Aminoadipate.

I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about this item. It shows up

in the sections: Gatrointestinal Markers, and B6, B12, & Folate

Dependant Markers. Any input would be appreciated.

- Andy's take on the urine AA tests is that they are not very useful.

-Sorry

Ok thanks. I was hoping someone could help me figure out what it

means because it looks like my son could be deficient in many aminos

but have too much of this other thing. I know chelate, chelate,

chelate, but sometimes that just isn't enough.
