5Strands Food Intolerance & Environmental Sensitivity Test for Adults & Children, 950 Items Tested, Kids Intolerance Testing Kit, at Home Gut Health Assessment, Fast 4 Day Results

This is a very comprehensive test. I was impressed at the amount of items tested and how clear the report was with the results. I've recommended this test to others. For a sensitivity test for this amount of things, the price was well worth it and way cheaper then a Dr visit.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I chose to go with 5Strands over other companies because of the affordable price and easy sampling. You only need 10-15 strands of hair to get tested and results are very easy to read and understand so you can build a meal plan that’s right for you and your body’s tolerance. I’d highly recommend this test!! I will also be adding the vitamins and minerals test to my results so I can supplement for the proper lack of nutrients as well.

Completely inaccurate. It told me I had no intolerance to several items that I know I am allergic to. And it gave me a list of items that I have no problem with. I requested a refund and they said no.

Amazing, stylish, functional ! Love it !! Works great !!!!!

Collecting the sample was easy, the anti-static bag helped keep my long hairs in the bag instead of sticking onto my fingers with each time I put another in. The box is neat, it works as branding as well as instructions. You ship the box back to them in a bag that is provided. The process itself is seamless and easy. They give you a code that you insert into their website before mailing it back so you can keep an eye on it. I did and noticed that after they received it they had it processed within a couple of days. As for the results, those were questionable to me. However, this is to be used to suggest what to cut out of your diet.

I’ve always had a more sensitive stomach and have been curious about potential food intolerances, so when I came across this brand and saw how simple the process was, I decided to give it a try (especially since this was a more affordable option compared to other tests). The process to give a sample was super easy (literally had to ship a few strands of my hair) and all of the required materials were included as well. I got my results in about a week and was surprised to see not just the food intolerances I had, but also the environmental items that I never considered to be sensitive to. I’ve been eliminating a few items from my diet that were listed as “severe” for me, and have been seeing positive results so far. I think this is a good option for people who are curious to learn more about their own body and are looking for an affordable option to do so.

This test works frantically! Just cut some hair off and send it back to the lab in the pouch provided. You will find out food and environmental sensitivities.

What a fun and creative way to dig deeper and discover more about yourself! I can see correlation and accuracy based on diet, and making even slight changes since taking this test has made a huge impact!
