What Is PNOE Metabolic Testing?

PNOE Metabolic Testing is a clinical-grade assessment that measures your oxygen consumption (VO₂) and carbon dioxide output (VCO₂) to determine your body’s unique metabolic profile. The test provides insights into how efficiently your body uses fuel (fat vs. carbohydrates), your aerobic fitness level, and how your metabolism functions at rest and during activity.

At Biosymmetry Wilmington, we use PNOE testing to create personalized nutrition, fitness, and health optimization plans. The data helps identify metabolic inefficiencies, caloric needs, and cardiovascular performance—empowering you to achieve faster, more sustainable results.

How PNOE Metabolic Testing Works

During a PNOE Metabolic Test, you’ll wear a comfortable breathing mask connected to advanced sensors that measure your respiratory gases while at rest or during exercise. The test typically takes 10–30 minutes, depending on the protocol, and provides detailed metabolic and fitness data in real time.

After the test, our specialists analyze your results to determine your resting metabolic rate (RMR), fat-burning efficiency, aerobic threshold, and VO₂ max (a key indicator of cardiovascular fitness). These insights form the foundation for a customized nutrition and training program designed specifically for your body’s needs.
