Anyone who wants a record of their liver markers without booking an appointment. It is commonly ordered by people tracking the effect of a change in diet, alcohol intake, medication or weight, and by people who want a baseline to compare against later.
It is a wellness test, not a diagnosis, and it does not replace care from your healthcare provider.
The panel
Seven markers, one clear picture
Processed by the same CAP accredited and CLIA certified laboratories that clinical labs use, and reported against standard reference ranges. Open any marker to read what it measures and why it is included.
A liver enzyme, and the more liver-specific of the two measured most often. It is one of the standard markers on any liver panel, reported here against the same reference range a clinical lab would use.
The second of the two primary liver enzymes. AST is also present in muscle and other tissue, which is why it is read alongside ALT rather than on its own.
The relationship between your two enzyme values, calculated and reported alongside them. Clinicians read the ratio as well as the individual numbers, so it is included rather than left for you to work out.
An enzyme found in the liver and bile ducts. It is commonly included in a fuller liver workup and is read alongside ALT and AST.
Reflects your average blood glucose across roughly the previous two to three months rather than a single moment, so it shows a longer pattern than a fasting reading.
High-sensitivity C-reactive protein, a general measure of inflammation. It is non-specific, which makes it most useful compared against your own earlier results over time.
An estimate of the fat stored around your internal organs, reported alongside your other results so you have the full picture in one place.
Laboratory testing for wellness purposes. Does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Labs and privacy
Where your sample goes, and who sees it
Two things worth knowing before you send a blood sample to anyone.
CLIA certification is federal and mandatory. Every laboratory that runs clinical tests in the United States is required to hold it, so on its own it tells you very little.
CAP accreditation is voluntary. It requires biennial on-site inspection by practicing pathologists against several thousand requirements, and it is the standard most US hospital laboratories hold. It is the harder of the two to get and the one worth asking about.
Our partner laboratories hold both, and they are located in the United States. Your sample does not leave the country, which is why turnaround is measured in days rather than weeks.
Results are published to a HIPAA compliant dashboard in your own account, within days of your sample reaching the laboratory. You get an email as soon as they are ready.
Your results are yours. They are not sold, and they are not shared with a third party without your instruction.
Every marker is shown against its reference range and explained in plain language, and the report downloads as a PDF you can bring to an appointment.

How it works
Three steps, start to results
Collect at home
A few drops of blood on the collection card, using the lancet in the box. It takes a few minutes and nothing needs to be sent to a clinic.
Mail it back
Drop the sample in the prepaid return envelope. Postage is covered in both directions, so there is nothing to pay or arrange.
Read your results
Results land in your dashboard in days, physician reviewed, with every marker shown against its reference range and explained in plain language.
Your results
A report you can actually use
Every marker is reported with its value, its reference range, and a plain-language explanation of what the measurement is. Nothing is left as a number you have to go and look up.
Your results stay in your account, so when you test again you can put the two side by side and see which way each marker moved.
- Reviewed by a physician before it reaches you
- Downloadable as a PDF to bring to an appointment
- Kept in your account for future comparison
Reviews
Reviews from verified buyers
So convenient, no doctor's offices, and I can see my trends over time. My last results showed high cholesterol markers, and I was able to change my diet and lifestyle to bring it back down. Five-year customer and I don't plan to stop.

About as straightforward as it gets. Order the test, do it at home, get your results. No waiting rooms, no awkward small talk, no chasing down answers. Just real results, and not the kind that makes you feel dumb looking at them.

If the laboratory cannot process your sample, we send a replacement test at no cost. You do not pay twice and you do not need to argue for it.
Our laboratories validate finger-prick samples against standard venous blood draws, so your results track traditional lab testing closely while letting you collect the sample at home.
No. There is no appointment, no lab visit and no referral. You order online, collect the sample at home, and review your results in your dashboard.
Once your sample reaches the laboratory, your results are published to your dashboard within days. You will get an email as soon as they are ready.
