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.
