TMAO (Trimethylamine N-oxide) Labcorp

High levels of TMAO have been associated with an increased risk of heart disease.

The TMAO test may be used as (1) an aid in the assessment of risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), independent of established risk factors, (2) an aid in the determination of altered gut microbiome (gut dysbiosis) in individuals who may benefit from intensive dietary intervention, and (3) a monitor therapy aimed at reducing TMAO concentrations.
