No. They highlight functional patterns and biochemical imbalances that guide personalised treatment, but they are not diagnostic on their own.

Yes. While GP panels screen for disease, Nutri-Stat expands the biomarker list and integrates results across systems to provide a functional, preventive perspective on health.

The urine component adds metabolic and oxidative-stress markers that reflect how your body is processing nutrients and detoxifying. Combined with blood chemistry, this gives a more complete picture of health.

This test requires a fasted blood and urine sample.  Your urine sample is taken at home while your blood sample is conducted at an authorised pathology lab collection centre.

Testing requires 4 days of preparation in advance taking your samples with instructions provided in the collection kit.

PROCESS

This test requires a Monday or Tuesday morning collection of

1.      A single urine sample - first morning urine then freeze while collecting blood

2.      A single morning blood draw from local collection centre

The samples must be posted together on a Monday or Tuesday

Do not complete test during menstruation

If you are experiencing a urinary tract infection (UTI) , delay collection until after completing treatment and wait 5 days

Urine sample is to be frozen for at least 2 hours before posting

Do not freeze blood samples.

TEST PREPARATION

The Nutri-Stat test requires 4 days of preparation prior to the test

4 days before the test - STOP

taking all supplements including protein powders, magnesium, creatine

48 hours before the test - Do not consume any

• avocado, bananas, chocolate, cocoa, cheese, citrus fruits, grapes, kiwifruit, pineapple, plums, tomatoes, walnuts, pecans and vanilla alcohol, coffee, tea, caffeinated drinks, or fruit juices

24 hours before the test - Do not consume any

• food, drink or products containing aspartame - 951 (often in chewing gum and sugar free products) added MSG - 621, 622, 623, 624 & 625

• Continue your usual diet without overconsuming one particular food

• Limit your fluid intake to ensure a concentrated urine sample.

 8-10 hours prior to collection

• Fast for a minimum of 8-10 hours (water is allowed).

Urine Collection Process

• Collect your first morning urine into the 50ml screw cap container

• Collect 2 x 10mls of urine from the small 50ml container and seal the urine monovettes

• ·Fill in patient information on the two adhesive stickers provided

• Note the date of collection on your NutriPATH request form

• Place the urine monovettes in the re-sealable section of the specimen transport bag and close the bag by press-sealing the bag removing any air pockets that may form in the bag as you seal it.

• Place the specimen transport bag in the freezer for at least 2 hours before posting.

5 days before and during test - Discontinue Cortisol/glucocorticoid supplementation:

Certain medications such as asthma inhalers and hydrocortisone contain cortisol. To evaluate natural cortisol production, it is recommended to stop cortisol containing products 5 days prior to sample collection.

Never discontinue prescription medications without first consulting your doctor.

3 days before and during test

If using hormonal supplementation:

• Discontinue oral and sublingual hormones for 72 hours before and during test.

• Do not use hormones vaginally, as this may directly contaminate the urine.

• Other hormones such as topical creams and gels, injectables, and patches can be used on your regular schedule.

• Do not skip doses of oral birth control pills unless instructed by your healthcare provider.

Note: A baseline hormone level may require supplement usage to stop for a longer period.

Call your health practitioner for more information.

24 hours before and during test - Avoid

• alcohol, caffeine, tobacco or nicotine-containing products

• strenuous exercise.

• avocados, eggplant, tomatoes, bananas, melons, pineapple, grapefruit, plums, fruit juice, nuts, nut butters, wine, cheese, rice, and chocolate.

Day of Collection

• Avoid all supplements and medications until after all samples have been collected

• (including those that regulate allergy, mood, sleep, pain and inflammation).

• Consult your practitioner for specific instructions before stopping any medications.

• Never discontinue prescription medications without first consulting your doctor.

Urine samples collection

• Samples should be frozen for at least 6 hours prior to posting.

Specific Test collection instructions can be found here

A full guide for test collection and further answers can be found here

This test is not meant for females not yet menstruating or males under the age of 12. To test children, salivary hormone testing may be a more appropriate medium.

Your collections should correspond to your pattern of eating and sleeping. The bedtime sample is collected before you go to sleep for your longest stretch of sleep and the waking is right after this sleeping period. The dinnertime

should be collected 4-7 hours before going to sleep.

• The OMX test requires1 waking urine sample

• Collect your urine sample on Sunday morning

• Post frozen sample on Monday in an AusPost bag at an Australia Post office

• Notify your health practitioner when you have completed and posted the test

Sample preparation - 48 HOURS PRIOR TO COLLECTION

Avoid

• All fruit Jams Jellies

• Alcohol (especially red wine)

• Stop supplements and non-essential medications

Sample Collection:

• Prior to sleep the night before empty bladder

• Collect first morning urine - 15-50ml (no more)

• Write your details on collection container Close lid on collection container until you hear double click

• Place into plastic specimen bag and seal Fill out form - place in document holder on padded Express Post Bag Place specimen bag and ice pack into padded bag.

• FREEZE for minimum 8 hours

• Post on Monday

No. Your DNA doesn’t change, so this is a once-in-a-lifetime test. However, you may review results with your practitioner as health or life circumstances change.

No. This test isn’t about disease prediction, but rather about revealing “genetic weak spots” and offering actionable ways to optimise wellness and support your unique biology.
