Testing Method

  • The TargeTest method of analysis easily measures the effects of the three blends on target enzymes in the blood associated with various health concerns.
  • Utilizing this two-step methodology, the blends were initially subjected to ex vivo evaluation in human sera for ability to affect target enzyme levels.
  • Subsequently these blends were tested in an in vivo, acute-effect clinical case study evaluation in human subjects.
  • Using TargeTest VDF FC has successfully identified sprouts that effect various target enzymes in human blood.
