Nervonic acid
Explanation: Nervonic acid is a type of fatty acid found in the brain and nervous system. It plays an important role in helping nerve signals travel efficiently throughout the body. Nervonic acid must be obtained from the diet or produced in the body from other fatty acids. Measuring nervonic acid levels helps assess whether the body is properly processing fats that are crucial for normal brain and nerve function.
Test Purpose: A nervonic acid blood test helps assess fatty acid deficiencies or excesses or fatty acid metabolism disorders and identify neurological symptoms related to nervonic acid imbalance.
