How NGx Testing Works
We provide you a simple test kit, which you administer yourself safely and comfortably at home, using only a swab. After you return the kit to us, our lab will analyze your sample using our state-of-the-art coding technology and methodology. Within about a week, you’ll receive a wealth of insights into your specific dietary needs, exercise performance, neurologic and general health, and genetic risk factors–all 100% customized to you and you alone.
NGx has been called “the future of wellness” for good reason. This personalized approach allows for more precise, predictable, and preventive health care, customized for the individual.
