Check how your body may react to common parasites.

This non-invasive hair test looks at how your body responds to the energy of internal and external parasites like worms, mites, and other tiny organisms that may be found in food, water, or the environment.

It does not diagnose infections or tell you if something is inside your body. Instead, it helps show if your body may be stressed or sensitive when exposed to certain parasite types.

The test includes both internal parasites that may affect the gut, and external parasites that may be picked up through the skin or surroundings. It’s a helpful tool for people looking to support gut health, skin issues, or overall wellness.

IMPORTANT: Our lab must have received your pet’s 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 165 parasites across categories including arthropods, cestodes, flyborne parasites, microsporidia, nematodes, protozoa, and trematodes. Identifying these sensitivities helps you take steps to reduce exposures and support your immune system.

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 see how their body is responding to foods and environmental factors. This structure helps you know which items to completely avoid, which to limit, and which are generally safe in moderation or without concern as you work toward better balance.

Step-by-Step Elimination Plan:

Step 1: Red (High Response)
Intolerances: Completely remove flagged foods for 6–8 weeks to give the digestive system time to reset.
Sensitivities: Eliminate exposures where possible, which may include reducing contact with certain products, substances, or materials flagged in the results.

Step 2: Yellow (Moderate Response)
Intolerances: Avoid these foods whenever possible. If reintroduced, do so only after symptoms improve and monitor closely.
Sensitivities: Reduce exposure as much as possible. If full avoidance isn’t realistic, limit contact and monitor for stress signs such as itching, digestive upset, low energy, or changes in behavior.

Step 3: Green (Mild Response)
Intolerances: Feed sparingly. These may be tolerated in small amounts but repeated exposure could still stress the gut.
Sensitivities: Allow limited contact, but avoid repeated or long-term exposure. Watch for patterns in energy, skin, or digestion that may indicate stress.

Step 4: Grey (No Significant Response)
Intolerances: These ingredients are safe to continue feeding. Keep meals varied to prevent new intolerances from developing.
Sensitivities: These items are considered safe for you. Normal exposure or use can continue without concern.

Step 5: Monitor & Retest
Intolerances: After the elimination period, reintroduce foods one at a time, leaving 3–5 days between each and watching for symptoms.
Sensitivities: Gradually reintroduce exposures in a controlled way. Retest every 4 months to track changes, as your body may shift with seasons, stress, medications, and other lifestyle changes.
