Support your gut by finding out which foods may be causing problems.

This hair test looks at how your body is reacting to over 152 different foods and drinks that may be stressing your digestive system. It checks for signs of intolerance that could be linked to poor digestion, bloating, gas, or other stomach issues.

When your gut is out of balance, even healthy foods can become hard to handle. This test helps you see which foods may be overloading your gut so you can give your body a break and focus on healing.

It doesn’t test for allergies or tell you how much of a food is in your body. Instead, it shows how your gut is currently handling certain ingredients based on your hair’s energy.

These results can guide you toward better food choices to support digestion, reduce stress in the gut, and improve how you feel overall.

IMPORTANT: Our lab must have received your hair sample within the past 60 days, otherwise a physical test kit must be purchased with the digital test/upgrade.

Your body’s response is measured against 152 items across categories including antioxidants, herbals, postbiotics, prebiotics, and probiotics. Pinpointing these intolerances helps you fine-tune your supplement and wellness routine.

No new hair sample is needed if your hair sample was received by our lab within the past 60 days. Simply purchase the test, and updated results will be uploaded to your 5Strands account within 3 days.

Your results are divided into 4 levels so you can clearly see how your body is responding to different ingredients. This structure helps you know which foods to avoid, what to limit, and what is generally safe in moderation.

Step-by-Step Elimination Plan:

Step 1: Remove all Red (High Intolerance) ingredients from your diet for 6–8 weeks. This gives their digestive system time to reset and recover.

Step 2: Limit Yellow (Moderate Intolerance) ingredients during this elimination phase. Reintroduce them only if symptoms improve, and closely monitor how you respond.

Step 3: Feed Green (Mild Intolerance) ingredients sparingly. They may be tolerated in small amounts, but repeated exposure could still place stress on your gut.

Step 4: Continue with Grey (No Significant Response) ingredients, but maintain variety in their meals. Rotating foods helps reduce the chance of new intolerances developing.

Step 5: After the elimination period, reintroduce foods one at a time, leaving 3–5 days between each new ingredient while watching for symptoms. Retesting every 4 months helps ensure your diet continues to match their changing needs.
