Heart Health at-Home Lab Test for Women and Men, Measures Cholesterol, Triglyceride and HbA1c Levels, Accurate Blood Analysis, CLIA-Certified Lab Results Within Days, Ages 18 Plus

I think EverlyWell has a unique business opportunity. They have come into a space that traditionally has a very high cost for customers. Their process and kit is very simple to use and cost effective.I ordered the kit on Amazon and it reached my house in two days. Luckily i read the instructions about not eating anything for 8 hours before using the kit. The process to extract blood is pretty easy and the prepaid shipping package was also convenient. I received my results on their website 5 days after the lab received my kit. Overall a great experience.To better the product, here are some things that EverlyWell can do:1. For any kit that has some dietary restrictions (like not eating for 8 hours), should have instructions in bold right as you open the kit.2. The time it takes for the laboratory to process the sample should be reduced.3. The shipping time is also quite a lot. Work with USPS to see if they can do expedited shipping for such products.

I pricked my finger, which was much more painful than at a doctor’s office. I got 2 drops of blood which was not enough for the device collecting the blood. I followed all the instructions beforehand to get the blood pumping. Lastly, I tried the second lancet they send but was unable to get it to pop out of its container. This is my second time trying to get this test to work (1st time was some cryptic message in the app about the lab not being able to process my kit when I tried to register my kit, which they were kind enough to replace). Long story short, I ended up throwing my kit away as I couldn’t get enough blood out of me and the second lancet did not function.

Earlier this year, I switched to a plant-based diet and wanted to monitor my cholesterol and hCRP markers as time passes.I have taken 2 of these so far and have been satisfied with the information I receive. My doctor wouldn’t run the hCRP so it was worth it to have that info as well as the A1C (borderline prediabetic).My husband (a diabetic) took one test and then had his cholesterol and A1C taken the following week by his doctor and the numbers were extremely close, so I feel confident in the numbers.The test itself requires several large blood drops to fill the card.It took a little bit to figure out how to package it properly to send back. Put the card in biohazard envelope. Place in box, slide cover back over box and place in mailing envelope.This particular test helps me take charge of my health and it’s worth the investment to know what my markers are.

I enjoy taking an active part in my health and these tests help me to work on myself if my results are out of range. I wish I could buy one and get one free!

Not sure about the accuracy of the test since this is the third kit I've sent in. Every time, I receive a message that there isn't enough blood. I uploaded a photo of my last test kit to their customer service and rec'd the following message:"I am so sorry your kit was unable to be processed by our partner lab. After reviewing your photo, I see that the clear serum on the right side of your sample did not spread far enough for the lab to process the sample. The clear serum must be free of blood and reach to the middle of the right side of the sample card for the lab to be able to process the sample. "Nowhere in their directions is this mentioned.I dropped 10 drops of blood into the well and it never moved to the right. Just spilled out of the well.If there are issues with sampling from some people and not others, then this is not a good option. Better to just have a certified lab draw blood.And, EverlyWell was willing to give me a refund. But, I bought it from Amazon and they won't issue a refund.Update: Amazon issued a refund after all. I still think there's something wrong with these kits.

being the retired RN and skeptic, I took this test then also had my doctor's lab test me for the same thing. tests are very accurate. finally a test is available that's much more convenient, timely and cheaper than going through the doctor's office. thanks Everlywell!

I got this because I've been looking for a good at home test to occasionally monitor health while dieting to see how I'm doing. I took this at home the same morning I had an actual physical at my doctor. I was fasting for both, and took this immediately after I got home. First it took several weeks for results to show up as they claimed my sample was sent in with a name I've never heard of attached to it. When the numbers did show up, they were dramatically higher than the numbers I got from the doctors lab tests. Cholesterol levels were nearly 2x as high, and my AC1 level according to this test put me as a diabetic. Given the mistakes they made twice with the wrong name (including emailing me and asking me to verify that incorrect name so they could process my results) makes me wonder if it's even my results I got back, or if some other person and I had our results swapped.

Nice concise packaging and directions. Results haven’t become available yet but happy so far!
