Who should take the test?

Our immune system reacts to food, pollen, animal scales, mites, and cockroaches, which, although foreign to the body, should not actually pose a threat. As soon as the foreign substances – the allergens – come into contact with the skin, mucous membranes, or the gastrointestinal tract, protein compounds are released, which then attach to the antibodies. This results in a variety of different symptoms. This effect is an exaggerated immune response.

How does it work?

Once your order has been processed, you will be sent a blood sample collection kit. You collect your sample from the comfort of your own home and send it back to us. We analyze your sample and send your results via secure email with a password protected PDF file.

What guidance will I get along with my results?

Following the completion of the analysis, you will receive a lab report that includes explanations for the analyzed markers and details on potential symptoms linked to imbalances. Additionally, we strongly advise that you discuss the results you receive from us with your healthcare provider or practitioner.

Moreover, you can find more information on our website, particularly in the various test categories under “health conditions” and FAQs. If you still have questions, feel free to reach out to us via email at contact@verisana.co.uk.
