Excellent points @circular! Thinking about the pulse rate test, I have a cool idea for how that could be implemented, I just haven't had the time to try it. I do quite a bit of ML/data science these days, where it would be trivial to run a feature importance regression using decision tree models bet...

I received my Everlywell results today (Viome expects the process to take another 3wks for processing.) Interesting to see what popped up in this IgG report.

I was just looking at this Everlywell product today -- I've always been interested in running a large food sensitivity panel and am partial to the idea of an at-home kit. On the product page, they list: the Everlywell food sensitivity kit uses an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, also called ELISA ...
