High L-lactate can cause muscle cramping, fatigue and brain fog, and indicates insufficiency of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a nutrient that enables the body to use oxygen to generate large amounts of energy. It is important for athletes in maintaining intense muscular activity. CoQ10 is also a potent antioxidant and may help to slow the aging
process and prevent a variety of degenerative diseases.
Risk for certain kinds of heart disease, cancer and hypertension are increased when CoQ10 is insufficient.

When both L-Lactate and pyruvate are high, there may be insufficient lipoic acid, a type of B-vitamin.

Low L-lactate is seen in people with very little physical activity and in highly trained athletes.

L-Lactate is a product of muscle use, so it is constantly produced in normal daily activity.

"Watching my numbers move over the years — instead of forgetting last time's results — completely changed how I manage my health."

"Living across several countries made keeping my lab results organized a real challenge. Healthmatters brought my results from the USA, Spain, and Germany together — 20 years of history, with long-term trends instead of scattered reports."

"Standard lab ranges are too wide for how I practice — 'normal' isn't optimal. I set my own bands, so a client sees yellow before a marker goes officially out of range. That's the conversation I want to be having."
