5 Strands Affordable
A Mom on a mission can be a very powerful thing. That’s the Legacy of Lisa Blaurock, founder of 5Strands Affordable Testing. Struggling with weight and digestive issues most of her life, Lisa spent thousands of dollars on testing and surgeries. Still desperate for answers on why she was not getting better, she took a food intolerance test costing $850.00 and found out that she was intolerant to many of the foods she was consuming in her daily diet.
Several months later, her daughter was having digestive issues. She knew that she should have her daughter do the testing, but she did not want to spend that kind of money again! She searched for alternative ways to do intolerance testing and found a blood test for $250.00. Her daughter was away at college and cried at having to prick her own finger to collect the blood sample the home test required. Lisa thought there had to be a better and easier way to test for intolerances. With further research, she found a lab in Europe that was doing testing with hair! The lab was willing to partner with her and that is actually how 5Strands Affordable Testing was created. After about 8 months in business, Lisa found that customers were asking if they could test their pets. Being a pet parent to 4 pets, she decided the next progression of the business was to develop a hair analysis test for pets. The 5Strands Affordable Pet Test was brought to market shortly after. It tests for around 200 food and 100 environmental items. It is a simple at home test that utilizes your pets hair. It is painless, hassle free, and affordable. There is no vet referral needed. It is priced at $144.00. The test provides a comprehensive list of the items that your pet registers an intolerance to.
