5Strands

Q: do any of the 550 intolerances include forms of sugar?

We test for many different forms of sugar. not only do we test for honey, white and brown sugar, but we test 15 different artificial sweeteners and preservatives.

Q: Do you have to purchase a separate test for different persons in the family?

Yes but I honestly would not buy this brand. Get the Everlywell kind. It’s a little bit more expensive but totally worth it. My husband took the 5strands test & it basically told him he couldn’t eat anything. Not even kidding, his results were 3 pages long. I got the everlywell brand, I had one page & did without the high and medium ranked foods for 30 days. By doing that I was able to find out that Gluten was causing my migraines. No way could I have found that out with 5strands with that many foods.

Q: Hello! Does the test work sending beard ??? Tks

I worked for me. Very accurate!!

Q: Can i take the test if ive been on a keto type diet for 5 months?

Yes, but comparing it to my blood test by my nutritionist it’s not as accurate and I supposedly had 350 red/high foods out of 600+. Hard to believe.
