Everylywell Home Health Tests

This blog post is written in collaboration with Everlywell.  All opinions are my own.

 

Please note:  I am not a doctor and I am not giving medical advice.  I am simply sharing Everlywell and my own personal experience.  You are in charge of your own health.

 

Have you ever needed some type of labs drawn but it was going to cost $1.5 million dollars out of pocket?  ????????‍♀️  And you don’t really have that kind of cash in your pockets to throw away?  ???? ????????‍♀️   Well, stop the madness.  ???? Because I have a perfect solution for you.  Everlywell!

Let’s back track.  I had the bird flu for weeks on end last year.  (Any type of upper respiratory stuff is called the bird flu in this household.)   I ended up contracting the bird flu THREE times throughout the year being sick for 6-8 weeks at a time.  I just KNEW it had to be something I was eating because of the constant inflammation I had.  My doctor suggested a food sensitivity test, so I went to schedule it and it was going to be $900 out of pocket.  ???? Um……… Ya…….. that would be a NO.

I started doing some research online and came across EverlywellEverlywell sells several different types of health tests, including a few that test for Food Sensitivities.   Their tests cost significantly lower than if you would go to a lab and have them done.  You simply take your own sample, send it in, and a physician reads it.  You then get your results on your device within days.

 

Everylywell Home Health Tests

Everlywell has several different options as far as tests for General Wellness.  Those include a Food Sensitivity Test, Cholesterol, Heart Health, Lyme Disease and many more.  Their Women’s Health Tests include a Fertility test, Peri and Post Menopause tests to see where you are at on that side of life.  ????  There are also tests for Thyroid, Metabolism, Vitamin D and Inflammation, and ALSO, they can test for STDs and HIV.  There are so many more that I haven’t mentioned.

My own personal experience with Everywell

Remember that $900 Food Sensitivity test that the doctor wanted me to take? ????   I immediately ordered the Food Sensitivity Test for $159, after seeing that on their list, and figured it should tell me at least SOMETHING I may be sensitive to.  This particular test checks your IgG reactivity to 96 different foods.  The test arrived a few days later.  I followed the directions carefully and after a simple finger prick to collect some blood, I sent it all in.  My results came back a few days later via email after being read by a physician.   I found that I am highly sensitive to wheat and gluten.  Needless to say, I was completely SHOCKED.

Wheat and gluten were immediately cut out of my diet because I wanted to see what would happen.  The  first thing I noticed was how many times I went to the bathroom… (#1 – ????)  I lost 9 pounds of water weight in the first 5 days from all of the inflammation I had in my body.  And I am currently knocking on wood, but since giving up the foods I am sensitive to, I haven’t had the bird flu.  It’s been almost a year.  Again…. this is my own personal experience with the Everlywell Food Sensitivity test.
