Identifying the root cause of your dog’s discomfort without painful treatment and expensive trips to the vet is the key to improving their physical and mental health, and it’s only attainable through the holistic approach that 5Strands’ bioresonance intolerance tests provide.
Hi, I’m Bertha (aka The Pet Medic), a Certified Pet First Aid & CPR/CPCR Instructor, Dog Mother, and US Combat Veteran, with a passion for ensuring the well-being of our beloved pets.
I'm holding the results from the 5Strands Pet Food & Environmental Test, which is the most effective method to identify your dog’s food and environment intolerances without lengthy, expensive trips to the veterinarian.
The best part is, these results give you a clear roadmap of which food or environmental items your dog may be sensitive to. Overexposure to these factors may cause discomfort symptoms including skin irritation, loss of appetite, eye/ear discharge or a lethargic demeanor. Overall, this test gives you answers to help your pet live a more comfortable life!
Normally these symptoms would be ignored or viewed as common behaviors or allergies. However, additional studies have proven that such symptoms are usually a result of dietary or environmental intolerances. If these intolerances can be identified and eliminated, the symptoms disappear!
If you’ve tried various solutions to tackle these discomfort symptoms with no results, it’s truly not your fault. It’s because these “solutions” are simply guessing the issue and not addressing the underlying root cause of your dog’s discomfort. As a dog mom, I understand firsthand that investing in new foods, medications, supplements and treatments is not always budget-friendly and can be frustrating when there are no results.
The 5Strands Pet Food & Environmental Test is completely different from the mainstream tips and tricks that you see on social media or hear about from peers. It utilizes NASA-based technology to identify imbalances in your dog’s body that may be causing these discomforts.
Most veterinarians will push you towards the painful option of an intradermal skin test which is not just a hassle, but also expensive. This requires traveling to a veterinary dermatologist (which may not be locally available for some people) where they’ll need to anesthetize your pet - a potentially dangerous risk for smaller animals like my Penelope Jane. If that wasn’t bad enough, they’d also need to shave large areas of your pet’s coat to monitor the injection sites for reaction. Luckily, the reality is that you don’t have to do any of this to get the same answers and only pay a fraction of the cost.
These answers are vital for your pet. A recent study from the University of Nottingham School of Veterinary Medicine found that dogs are more likely to exhibit behavioral issues if intolerances are left untreated. Behavioral issues include chewing, hyperactivity, eating feces, begging/stealing food, excitability, excessive grooming and mounting. Nottingham researcher who led the study, Dr. Naomi Harvey, stated in a press release, “Our study clearly showed a relationship between the occurrences of problematic behavior in dogs and chronic itching. This can have a knock-on effect and impact the relationship between owner and dog, which means it’s important for owners to know that their dog’s behavioral problems could be due to the itching, rather than the dog themselves.”
This was an important issue for Austin Collins, 5Strands CEO, because it’s something that he personally experienced. His dog, Zeus, had many of the behavioral issues listed in the study. Looking back, he realized that what Dr. Naomi Harvey said is true. He slowly began building resentment towards his best friend. It hurts him to think back on that time, as it wasn’t Zeus’s fault. He knew deep down that something was wrong, so he decided to do something about it.
He tried all the tips and tricks. More exercise, more chew toys, consistent grooming, obedience classes. He even tried switching up Zues' diet after doing his own research. Nothing worked.
That’s when he decided to create a simple way to identify the root cause of all this discomfort. He knew that if he could do that, I could eliminate it and help Zeus live a better life. So he partnered up with Lisa Blaurock to develop a test that is easy-to-use, pain free for pets, and most importantly, provides answers. After years of grueling research and testing, it worked!
I had the privilege to meet Austin and Lisa when I attended a pet industry professionals event in Orlando, FL. They gifted me the 5Strands Pet Food and Environmental Test to try out.
I chose to use my dog, Penelope Jane, for the kit since she has digestive and skin issues.
The results from her tests were surprising and she has quite a lengthy list of intolerances and sensitives.
It's amazing that just a few strands of their hair can give you the answers to help your pet live their best life.
But don’t just take my word for it! Check out these reviews from real users who all shared the same longing for a real answer:

I purchased this test because my dog’s skin was super irritated and she was constantly scratching and the vet could not figure out what was causing it. She had been on steroid medications for several months and nothing was helping. After receiving the test results, it showed that my dog has an intolerance to beef which was the main ingredient in her dog food. Within 2 weeks of changing her dog food, the itching has stopped! This test has been a life saver! I would definitely recommend this product to any pet owner.

I was told when my puppy was about a year old that she had a poultry allergy, since then, I’ve tried Bison and Sweet Potato; Salmon and Sweet Potato; Beef (not beef meal) and green peas; Kirkland’s premium dog food; 2 varieties of the Solid Gold dog food; along with about 5 other foods and was at my wit’s end because I was running out of foods to feed my poor pup. I looked into allergy tests, found this one, saw it had good reviews and cost less than a trip to the vet, and ordered it.
Thank God, I ordered this because (1) the first thing my vet told me to cut was chicken, when it turns out chicken (but not chicken meal) was pretty much the only protein she could eat; (2) she was allergic to peanut butter, but because I thought she had a poultry allergy, all her treats had peanut butter in them; and (3) now, I finally know what I can feed my dog instead of just guessing/trying an elimination diet.
Please try this and do NOT listen to vets who just immediately jump to a poultry allergy conclusion!

I have a 3-year-old English bulldog that was always itching and had bumps all over her body. We had her on Fromm's food, but after talking to people who have bulldogs, they suggested trying Zignature food, which worked better. However, she still had occasional itching, paw licking, and fewer bumps. Sometimes, she would get really itchy, and I felt bad. The doctor gave me a pill, which helped a lot but was expensive. I had reached a point where something needed to be done!
I googled allergy tests, and 5Strands came up. After reading the reviews, I thought, 'Let's give it a try,' because the vet was charging me a lot for check-ups. So, I got the kit, put the hair in the bag, and sent it to them. After about 6 business days, they sent me a list, and boom, she had a lot of allergies. There were about 3 ingredients in her food that were on the list, but at level 1.
I went to my local pet store and talked to the owner, giving her this list so we could change her food. After about 30 minutes, she recommended a raw food diet because it didn't contain anything that was on the list. I thought, 'Okay, let's try it.' One week later, I noticed my bulldog with a shiny coat, being much more active, more responsive, and way less itchy. She told me it would take a couple of weeks before the other food leaves her system.
Overall, this product helped me a lot and saved me tons of money. My bulldog is much, much better now—eating more, running more. It helped me pinpoint her allergies! It's a must for any dog that's itchy and keeps getting bumps! I highly recommend it!
What makes 5Strands the superior choice is that it is SO easy to use. Zero preparation needed, no pricey specialist visits or risky trial-and-error. The entire process is carried out from the comfort of your own home and most importantly, pain-free for your dog!
The Pet Food and Environmental Intolerance Test includes two tests: a food intolerance test and an environmental intolerance test. This test covers a total of 380 common pet food ingredients and environmental items. The at-home collection kit only requires 10-15 strands of pet hair and the results are back to you in 7 days! It was so easy to collect Penelope Jane’s sample and I’m sure she didn’t even notice as I distracted her with belly rubs.
5Strands is unique due to the BIORESONANCE technology utilized to determine the food items creating imbalances within the gut microbiome. Once you understand which food items may be causing your pet’s discomfort, the results help guide you toward eliminating intolerances and/or sensitivities. Once removed, the gut is able to rebalance to its natural state.
You understand the negative effects that ignoring intolerances can have on your dog’s health, and I bet you’ve also tried tips and techniques that didn’t help at all. But you’ve seen the results and reviews from real people who have helped their pets overcome discomfort.
Now it’s time to take action. There are three options:
Option 1: Ignore the problem and don’t do anything.
Hopefully your pup doesn’t take its discomfort and frustration out on your property.
But if you care enough to address the issue before it gets worse, you have 2 options…
Option 2: Keep trying cheap tricks
Changing their diet, buying supplements and testing home remedies; they’re all “techniques” that strive to improve your dog’s health.
But as you now know, these attempts simply don’t address the root cause if your dog has certain intolerances.
Option 3: Give 5Strands a shot.
I’ve researched the best options available, worked with the experts, and discovered the best way to improve my dogs’ quality of life.
No painful procedures, just a simple test that starts and ends in the comfort of your home.
Of these options, which will you choose for your pets?
There are two types of people in this world. 1) Those who continue to procrastinate, never acknowledge problems, and accept the daily discomfort as a normal part of life for them and their loved ones. 2) Those who recognize what is causing harm and discomfort to them and their loved ones and take action to eliminate it.
Most individuals will claim that they want the best for their pet, but we both know only a select few are actually proactive to see it through.
It’s the classic tale of the willful and the wishful.
Most people will ignore intolerances while the few who actually care about their pet’s quality of life will see the long-term effects and take proactive action.
Considering you’ve read up to this point, I believe you’re one of the proactive ones who care.
