Sometimes it’s not food causing your symptoms, like skin irritation, eye gunk, or headaches. It’s the detergent you wash your clothes with, the shampoo you use every day, or the plants growing in your own backyard.

Our Environmental Sensitivity Test helps you track down the potential source by testing for 190 common home and outdoor elements. Environmental sensitivities reflect dissonance in how your body responds to things like fabrics, cleaning products, pollen, or pet dander. Once you know what’s behind the symptoms, you can make lifestyle changes, cut back on exposure, and start feeling like yourself again.

The Environmental Intolerance Test covers a wide range of everyday items that could be affecting your well-being:

Pollen & Plants: Includes grasses, flowers, and trees.
Animal Dander: Dogs, cats, and other common pets.
Fabrics: Natural fibers like wool and synthetic materials such as polyester.
Cleaning Solutions: Household chemicals, detergents, and air fresheners.
Environmental Irritants: Mold, dust mites, and smoke.

This holistic assessment focuses on sensitivities, not allergies, helping you identify and manage subtle, long-term reactions that may be contributing to discomfort.

Once you receive your environmental intolerance test kit: (1) Register your 5Strands kit via our mobile app or on 5Strands.com using the unique ID code inside your box. (2) Collect 10-15 strands of hair. No root required. (3) Use the prepaid envelope to send your hair sample back to our lab. (4) Once your sample arrives, your results will be delivered to you in 5 business days. (5) After 60 days, your sample will be permanently disposed of.

Your 5Strands results are more than just data—they’re a personalized guide to creating a healthier, more comfortable environment for yourself. Each item tested is categorized into three sensitivity levels to help you prioritize changes:

Level 3 (High Sensitivity): These items are likely causing noticeable symptoms such as skin irritation, fatigue, or discomfort. For instance, if pet dander is flagged, consider limiting your exposure by creating pet-free zones or using HEPA filters.
Level 2 (Moderate Sensitivity): These items may contribute to mild or occasional symptoms. If synthetic fabrics are flagged, try gradually swapping them for natural fibers like cotton or linen in your clothing and bedding.
Level 1 (Low Sensitivity): These items generally have a minimal impact but may become more significant with frequent exposure. For example, if a specific cleaning product is flagged, monitor how you feel after using it and consider switching to a more natural alternative.

Your results are designed to heighten your awareness and empower you to make meaningful changes. For instance, if seasonal pollen is flagged, you could start using an air purifier during peak allergy seasons or adjust outdoor activities to lower pollen times of the day. If cleaning solutions are a trigger, replacing harsh chemicals with natural, unscented options can make a significant difference in reducing symptoms.

Because sensitivities can evolve over time due to environmental changes or lifestyle shifts, retesting every 6–12 months ensures you stay aligned with your body’s current needs. With this personalized roadmap, you can make informed decisions to create an environment where you feel your best, every day.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Environmental Intolerance Test analyzes your body’s energetic response to over 190 environmental factors, including pollen, grasses, animal dander, cleaning solutions, and fabrics. It identifies sensitivities and imbalances that may contribute to discomforts like skin irritation, fatigue, or sleep disturbances. This test does not measure immune-based allergies but focuses on how your body energetically interacts with its surroundings.

No, this is not an allergy test. Allergy tests focus on immune responses, such as IgE or IgG reactions. The 5Strands test uses bioresonance technology to identify intolerances and imbalances at an energetic level, which can offer insights into sensitivities that may not appear on traditional blood allergy tests.

Your results will highlight items causing mild, moderate, or severe intolerance. These results provide a roadmap to reduce exposure to the most reactive items. For example, if synthetic fabrics or pet dander are flagged, you can adjust your environment by swapping fabrics, using air purifiers, or managing exposure to specific pets.

Yes, environmental intolerances can change over time based on factors like location, seasonal shifts, or exposure levels. For instance, pollen sensitivities may intensify during specific seasons, while relocating to a new home may introduce new triggers. Retesting every 6–12 months can help track changes and guide adjustments.

No special preparation is needed. Simply ensure your hair sample is clean and free of visible dirt or residue. Hair dye and treatments won’t affect the results. Follow the instructions in the kit to collect and submit your sample, and you’ll receive your results within 7 days of the sample’s arrival at our lab.

It's Not Always An Allergy Symptom

You can react to your environment without having a full-blown allergy. It might not be dramatic, but even low-level exposures to certain materials or chemicals can still take a toll on your body. This is how an environmental intolerance begins.

Allergies happen fast—sneezing, rashes, swelling. Intolerances don’t. They build slowly. You might just feel off. More tired than usual. Foggy brain, or irritated skin that doesn’t go away. All signs something might be wearing your system down.

A lot of everyday things can trigger that kind of response—pet dander, dust, synthetic fabrics, mold, detergents, even the cleaning sprays you use around the house.

Our environmental sensitivity test checks your response to over 100 common environmental items. It helps you identify hidden sensitivities, so you can manage exposure with a clear game plan—and start feeling better in your own space.

    Great and easy way to test for environmental toxins

    Really liked how easy the test was but would have liked to know what the next step would be? Do I avoid everything that I’m level 3 sensitive to or can I get desensitized by a naturopath?
