Both tests provide a deep look into your nutritional and metabolic health, but they differ slightly in focus and detail. Understanding these differences can help you and your practitioner choose the best test for your health goals. ## What Is the Metabolomix+ Test? Genova’s **[Metabolomix+](https://myvillagegreen.com/collections/lab-tests/products/metabolomix-61313 "Explore the Metabolomix+ Functional Nutrition Test with Omega and Toxin Panels")** is a comprehensive functional nutrition assessment that measures key organic acids, amino acids, fatty acids, oxidative stress markers, and nutrient cofactors that reflect your body’s biochemical balance. When combined with the Omega and Toxin add-ons, this test provides even more insight into: - Omega-3 and Omega-6 balance (important for heart, brain, and inflammation support) - Exposure to common toxins and environmental chemicals (which can affect metabolism and detoxification) ### What It Evaluates: - Vitamins & minerals (B-vitamins, magnesium, zinc, etc.) - Amino acids for protein metabolism - Fatty acid balance (with Omega add-on) - Antioxidant status and oxidative stress - Toxin and chemical exposure (with Toxin add-on) - Gut health and microbial metabolites ### Who It’s Best For: Metabolomix+ is ideal for those who want a personalized nutritional snapshot and insight into how diet, lifestyle, and environment affect their health. It’s especially useful for people experiencing: - Fatigue or low energy - Brain fog or mood changes - Digestive problems - Hormonal imbalance - Detoxification or inflammation issues ## What Is the NutrEval® Test? The **[NutrEval® FMV (First Morning Void) Test](https://myvillagegreen.com/collections/lab-tests/products/nutreval "Learn more about the NutrEval® Comprehensive Nutrition Test from Genova Diagnostics")**, also from Genova Diagnostics, is one of the most comprehensive panels for identifying nutritional deficiencies and metabolic imbalances. This test includes everything in the Metabolomix+ core analysis, plus additional detail on oxidative stress, fatty acid profiles, and nutrient markers that connect to chronic disease risk. ### What It Evaluates: - Organic acids (energy metabolism, mitochondrial function) - Amino acids (protein metabolism, neurotransmitter support) - Fatty acids (including Omega 3, 6, 9, and trans fats) - Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants - Toxin markers and heavy metals - Cardiometabolic and mitochondrial health ### Who It’s Best For: NutrEval® is ideal for people who want a deeper clinical analysis of their nutrient status, oxidative stress, and chronic disease risk.
