Great product, highly reccomend.
After 2 weeks, all my doctors test were comming back normal but he refused my request to test for toxins. My health was rapidly declining and I was able to order this kit with prime 2 day shipping. The seller also got me connected with the lab's customer service to add the nutrient panel to my test! Simple instructions, quick response. Thank you!

Accuracy questionable
They don't tell you in the description anywhere that this is a "Research Test" only. I was already a bit skeptical, but thought I would try it out. When I got the results I knew these results were not legitimate just by looking at the report, I'm pretty sure these tests are not performed in the United States which is how they get away with allowing you to order them on Amazon or they would be violating federal CLIA laws. I did the nutritional deficiency test and metals/minerals test, one test said I was deficient for Titanium and Chromium, and the other said I had abnormally high levels of Titanium and Chromium, tell me how this makes any sense. I highly doubt I'm that toxic with Uranium or Polonium, I would probably be extremely sick and/or full of cancer. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!!! I can see this causing a lot of people to hound their physicians to order a bunch of unnecessary expensive testing, but I would hope most providers wouldn't do that just by looking at this report.

Good to know important health impacting details
Very rarely one gets asked to have the amount of heavy metals that may be in our body.Fish may contain mercury. Water may contain lead. Get too much of those polutants and health may suffer.For the small cost of this product/service I find it to be very valuable at an affordable price.I pulled and cut a few strands of hair cut short near the root (about 10) from the back side mostly as instructed on the detailed instructions.Then I placed then inside the anti-static bag and shipped it to them inside the envelope provided. Just one Forever stamp was needed. Then a few days later I received an email indicating that the package was received.After that step they should be emailing me the results or calling me.I am now waiting for those results, but already glad to have found this convenient method to check.People that eat lots of sushi and/or leave in old houses with lead based or even copper with lead soldering water pipes would be best check for heavy metal pollutants in their body.I understand that anything unusual will be flagged for follow up with family doctor.

Vague measurement!
This will give you a rough idea, but the results are presented at elementary-school level, with 'green, yellow and red' bar-chart kind of readings. You do not get specific amounts/data. If you are just looking for a basic test that gives you general readings in case you're wondering, and don't have a lot to spend, go for it. If something is in the red, you can always follow up by going to a doctor or purchasing a more expensive and detailed kit.

living a healthy lifestyle
I wanted to know if I had any metal/mineral toxicity, so that I could do something about it if I did. this test was very informative for me. I received it in a very timely manner, and also received the results fast!

Eye opener
This test gave me a lot of information, It found high concentration of Vanadium, Tin, Radium, Phosphorus, Cadmium, Beryllium, Selenium, Gold, Bismuth, Zirconium and Molybdenum (all metals found in Hymalayan salt), so I will definitely stop having it and giving it to my family! It also found high levels of Tungsten, which from what I read is found in electronics, so I'm not sure what to do about that, but I will take some bentonite clay baths and hope it helps me to detoxify, along with other things..

Doesn’t test for heavy metals.
It tests to see what heavy metals you cannot properly detox. Not what I wanted at all.

Worthless
Do not use this if you are serious. The results are inaccurate. I know I have a high level of mercury in me it did not just disappear in a couple of months. Can't return either. Total waste of time and money.
