Urine testing for Assessing Candida.

This  is a very sensitive urine test that will indicate whether you have a yeast overgrowth such as candida albicans.

Our  Microbial Organic Acids Test (MOAT) test  indicates 21 metabolites produced by yeast and bacteria. Elevated test values are related to yeast or bacterial dysbiosis. The test also looks for beneficial bacteria, harmful bacteria, Clostridia species, Candida species, yeast and fungal metabolites, and general markers of dysbiosis.

The test is conducted using your first urine sample of the day and we will examine it to assess fungal overgrowth. Please   avoid apples, grapes (including raisins), pears, cranberries and their juices 24 hours prior to specimen collection.

The results take 2-3 weeks.
