Sarcosine

Amino Acid Profile, Qn (Urine), LabCorp

Optimal range:   0.5 - 27.3 umol/g Cr

Sarcosine is an amino acid made within the methylation cycle when S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is conjugated with glycine. It can also be made by catabolism of dimethylglycine (DMG).

There are many dietary sources of sarcosine including eggs, legumes, nuts, and meats.

Sarcosine is also available as an over-the-counter supplement, and it is widely used in cosmetic formulations (toothpaste, creams, and soaps) and detergents. In the methylation cycle, sarcosine is created by the GNMT enzyme, which functions to control SAM excess.

3102 ION (Blood/Urine) Amino Acids 40, Genova Diagnostics

Optimal range:   0 - 0.15 qmol/dL

Sarcosine is an amino acid made within the methylation cycle when S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is conjugated with glycine.

It can also be made by catabolism of dimethylglycine (DMG).

There are many dietary sources of sarcosine including eggs, legumes, nuts, and meats.

Sarcosine is also available as an over-the-counter supplement, and it is widely used in cosmetic formulations (toothpaste, creams, and soaps) and detergents.

In the methylation cycle, sarcosine is created by the GNMT enzyme, which functions to control SAM excess. Some clinicians use sarcosine elevation as a marker of ‘excess methyl supplementation’ or ‘over-methylation.’ Currently, there is no literature to support this hypothesis, but rather it is based on physiology.

SARS-CoV-2 Antibody (IgG), Spike, Semi-Quantitative

Corona Virus COVID-19

Optimal range:   0 - 0.99 index

The SARS-CoV-2 IgG assay is intended for qualitative and semi-quantitative detection of IgG antibodies to the S1 receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The measurement of IgG levels can provide insight to an individual's adaptive immune response to a SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination. Although the assay is designed to assess the level of an individual's immune response, studies are still needed to determine the index level threshold that confers protective immunity as well as how long the adaptive immune response may last post-infection or via vaccination.

Satratoxin (IgE)

Serum

Serum Antibody Testing for Mycotoxins, MyMycoLab

Optimal range:   0 - 0.15 Units

These water-soluble mycotoxins could produce airborne particles which could facilitate entry and release into respiratory airway tissue that may selectively induce apoptosis in olfactory sensory neurons in the nose (rhinitis) and brain(mild focal encephalitis).

Although epidemiological studies that specifically examine exposure to mycotoxins in indoor residential environments are relatively limited, there is substantial evidence of a relationship between mycotoxin exposure (via ingestion and inhalation) and adverse health effects in occupational (agricultural and food processing) settings and animal studies.

Saturated Fats, Total

Blood

NutriStat Basic Profile, US BioTek

Optimal range:   29.89 - 42.1 %

Saturated Fats, Total is a key marker providing important information about the levels of saturated fats in your diet. Saturated fats are a type of fat found in various foods, including animal products like meat and dairy, as well as some plant-based oils like coconut and palm oil and peanut butter. These fats are typically solid at room temperature. Monitoring the total amount of saturated fats in your diet is crucial because high intake is linked to an increased risk of developing heart disease and other health issues. When you consume too many saturated fats, it can lead to higher levels of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol, in your blood.

Saturated Fatty Acid Index

Fatty Acids Profile, Essential (Serum/Plasma)

Optimal range:   0 - 30 %

When assessing fatty acids in RBCs, this marker measures a weighted percentage of fatty acids taken up into the erythrocyte wall. The total saturated fatty acid percentage is a combined total weight percentage calculated by adding up each of the measured saturated fatty acids. It should be noted that when dealing with percentages, the amount of each fatty acid can influence the others. For example, fish oil supplementation may increase the overall omega-3 percentage, which then lowers the omega-6 percentage. Because some saturated fatty acids are beneficial, it is important to look at the levels of those specifically as well.

Fatty acids are essential to heart health. Balancing fatty acids can improve cholesterol and triglyceride levels, improve immune system function as well as reduce inflammation and rate of heart disease.

Saturated Fatty Acid Index Includes:

Myristic (14:0)

Palmitic (16:0)

Stearic (18:0)

    - May raise levels of LDL-C and increases heart disease risk.
