  • Confirmed deficiencies doctors ignored
Going to the doctors for lightheadedness, everything kept coming back fine other than my low red blood count. I had all of the symptoms of b12 deficiency, including the grey hair. Having gut issues my body wasn’t absorbing the nutrients I needed. This test confirmed my vitamin deficiencies I knew I had. I don’t trust bloodwork’s especially since my local hospital changed what is now normal for results, and other hospitals each have their own differences in analyzing blood. Nothing is full proof but this test definitely helped me and feel better. ... show more

  • Fixing my energy
Quick, painless sample, and the final report showed me exactly where my body was struggling to absorb nutrients. It made it incredibly simple to tweak what I pack in my cooler for long trips.

  • Let me save you the trouble
I purchased the 5Strands Nutrition Test hoping to gain meaningful insight into possible nutrient absorption issues. Unfortunately, after receiving my results and looking more closely at how the test works, I realized it does not measure actual vitamin or mineral levels in the body. The report I received back clearly states that it does not measure how much of a nutrient is present, but instead reflects the body's “energetic relationship” with that nutrient. There are no numeric values, no reference ranges, and no way to determine whether you are truly deficient, sufficient, or excessive in any nutrient. While some things were flagged in my report, I have no way of knowing if I am too high or too low in those nutrients. NOTE: I know from a lab result that I have an iron deficiency, causing my thyroid issues, but iron was not flagged in this report. That tells me the results are inaccurate. Without measuring actual levels, the results are not useful. Acting on them could lead someone to take supplements unnecessarily or miss a real deficiency that requires proper testing. I wasted my time and money, and I am trying to keep you from doing the same. ... show more

  • An affordable way to understand your body
The test were done on 3 categories: food, nutrients, and environmental. In each test the aim is to list those items that may cause harm to our bodies. The items are ranked into 3 levels from highest intolerance (to avoid for 60 days) to the lowest (15 days) plus a normal level that it’s ok to consume or be exposed to. I love to drink tea an feel good after drinking it and naturally it’s at the normal level. I love cheese too but I often had that funny feel in my stomach after eating it. Cheese is categorized as level 3 red in this test. Another example is rubber, I can’t take the smell, long exposure makes me nausea. As expected it’s a red level 3 in environmental test. The results are very comprehensive and they offer a good reference points on what to avoid to have a healthier and better life. I believe we can always live better. The test is easy, just purchase the kit and send 15 strands of your hair. It’s non-evasive at all. And for less than $100 I think this test is a steal. ... show more

  • Not as informative as expected
Test is easy enough but limited information is provided, which was disappointing. You provide strands of hair and results arrive within a couple weeks. I expected to at least understand if levels were elevated or deficient, not necessarily even a reference range, but it doesn't provide this information. It only lets you know if you have an issue and if it's low, moderate or severe. So you're not going to understand if it's an elevated result or deficient in the specific mineral/vitamin or amino acid but only if you have an issue with it. It's minorly helpful but then i still have to have those retested by my doctor IF i can get them to not dismiss this result, like so many physicians do. It's helpful in the sense that i know i have an issue, but that's it..and i already knew that. If it at least provided whether you are deficient or elevated it would be a phenomenal test because it tests things i never even heard of. So i gave a 3 start for that reason. I'd give a 5 if it provided more information about deficiency or elevation rather than just severity of the issue. ... show more

  • Why I purchased this test
I take supplements regularly and have never known how my body responds. With this test I learned which ones my body can handle as well as which one I should be trying to get through whole foods rather than supplements. I recommend this for anyone who is equally curious. Plus the customer support is wonderful if you have any follow-up questions about your results. ... show more

  • Better planning
Removes the guesswork from my diet. You simply collect a small hair sample and mail it back to get a detailed breakdown of any absorption issues. The data sheet gives a clear blueprint to change up meal prep for better stomach comfort.

  • Highly recommend
I ordered the 5Strand hair analysis to help address some concerns I have. I got the results back in a timely manner and today did a consultation with Stacey. She went over my test and suggestions on what do do moving forward. She was so easy to talk to and very helpful! I am going to do a food sensitivity test as she recommended and will go from there. I would highly recommend this test and the consultation and I believe it would very beneficial. Stacy went out of her way to call me since I was not sure on how to do a Zoom meeting. ... show more
