Metametrix Testing

I am licensed provider for Metametrix Labs which offers unique and insightful test panels of which the GI Effects Test is the best in the industry as far as I am concerned.  Their testing uses PCR analysis versus traditional microscopy testing in which PCR is highly accurate.

Read more about the testing here        

If you are interested then the process is easy in which I will order the test kits to be sent directly to you, you send the specimens back to Metametrix and enclose a check.  I receive test results in about 2 weeks and forward them to you via email.

They offer several different panels from a full profile to specific pathogenic testing.  I recommend panel #2105 which tests all phases of pathogens (parasite, yeast and bacteria).  Cost for this test is $250.00.

Email me with any questions you have.
