How Did 5Strands Affordable Testing Come To Be?

5Strands Affordable Testing was founded 3 years ago by Lisa Blaurock, Ethan Steed, & Austin Collins. Lisa was having digestive issues for years & after paying thousands of dollars for several doctors to tell her that ‘we can’t figure out what’s wrong with you’, she got mad at the system and found answers for herself. After figuring out that she had to eliminate gluten, dairy & yeast items her digestive issues started going away. She has always had the desire of helping others and what better way to do that then by making yourself & your pet healthier and happier!

5Strands was created out of a burning desire to assist others— both animals and humans— to experience what “healthy" feels like. Sometimes in this busy world we neglect looking after our own body and that of our horse, dogs or other pets. It is extremely easy to just eat the first thing in sight or what is available in the present moment, or to just open up a bag of kibble, or sack of grain— and pour it out for our animals to consume. But was it the best thing to eat? Food is the Fuel for our body— are you putting things in your body, or that of your animals, that can actually cause harm? 5Strands can give you a roadmap and put you and your animals on the wonderful ‘path of health’!

5Strands Mission Statement is,

5Strands tests for "Intolerances"- What is the difference between an "Allergy" and an "Intolerance"?
Some of the symptoms will overlap. However, there are a few important differences. An allergy is a reaction involving the immune system. This reaction is typically immediate and can be life threatening. Most of the time, the symptomatic response will be vomiting or diarrhea, severe hives, facial swelling, or shortness of breath. An intolerance does not involve the immune system and has a delayed reaction. The response will not be life threatening. A food intolerance will typically indicate that your horse is lacking the digestive enzymes to break down a certain food item and digest it. In result, they will experience unpleasant and unwanted physical reactions.

Note: Symptoms of intolerances are digestive issues, joint pain, coat problems, cracked hooves, hair loss or nasal discharge. Some, if not most of these issues are very difficult to see on your horse until it is too late and turned into an ongoing issue.

So, What Will I Know After My Horse Has This Amazing Test?
You will receive a comprehensive report that indicates all of the items that your horse has registered a response to. They are color coded like a Stoplight. The Level indicates the type of response their body may experience with ingestion or exposure.

Level 3—(Stop!) Level 3 intolerances are considered items that your horse's body registered an imbalance to and may be very likely to cause noticeable symptoms. Reactions may show up as inflammation, digestive upset or issues, skin problems, fatigue, joint pain, coat problems, cracked hooves, hair loss or nasal discharge. These items need to be Eliminated from their diet or avoid exposure to the item as much as possible.

Level 2(Slow Down) Level 2 intolerances are items that your horse's body has registered an imbalance to with symptoms that may result in reactions like itchy skin, runny nose, watery eyes, etc. These need to be avoided or greatly reduced.

Level 1 (Be Aware) Level 1 intolerances are items that your horse's body registered a low level imbalance. While there may be no noticeable symptoms, they may potentially cause issues over time. Consumption should be in very limited amounts.

These results can be cross referenced with the master list of items that your horse was tested for. Only feed your horse what is left on the master list for 6-8 weeks and see if the symptoms lessen.

We have made such a difference in the lives of animals and their humans alike!

Says June's Owner...

When we adopted June she was very itchy and had dry flakey skin. We tried feeding her higher end food and giving her salmon oil supplements, but it didn’t seem to help. I personally have a lot of food allergies and instantly thought it was something we should look into.

We found out that almost everything June was eang she was sensive too. This includes most forms of beef, chicken, Pork, Elk, Duck, Alfalfa, Pumpkin, and much much.

To transion her food I did the following:
3 days 75% old food, 25% new food

3 days 50% old food, 25% new food

3 days 25% old food, 75% new food

It was almost an instant change. Even when we were sll in the transion period she was itching much less. It’s been about 2 months now and her skin and fur is great. She is only 5 months old so I’m sure that has helped her adapt, but he seems much more at ease now. I’ve personally recommended 5 Strands to many friends and family as well who have seen changes in their lives and animals as well.
We have many great Case Studies all with results like June!

What does the 5Strands Equine Comprehensive Intolerance & Imbalance Test actually screen?
The Equine Comprehensive Intolerance & Imbalance Test is an at-home kit that screens 290+ items across four assessments in a single submission: Food Intolerance, Environmental Intolerance, Nutritional Imbalance, and Metals & Minerals Imbalance. The food panel spans proteins, grains, vegetables, fruits, fats, additives, and preservatives, while the environmental panel covers fabrics, grasses, trees, insects, and essential oils. Listed at $136.00, it is built to help owners fine-tune feed, supplements, and turnout environment for horses of all ages and breeds.

Who founded 5Strands, and what drove them to build it?
5Strands was founded by Lisa Blaurock, Austin Collins, and Ethan Steed after Lisa spent years and thousands of dollars on doctors who could not explain her digestive issues. Today Lisa serves as President, Austin Collins as CEO, and Ethan Steed as COO, leading a company that has served 450,000+ customers and helped 300,000+ people and pets find answers to unexplained symptoms. The brand also partners with Creative Enterprises, a nonprofit that employs individuals with disabilities, and shares proceeds with organizations supporting veterans and animals in distress.

How does the hair-sample method work for a horse?

The test requires only a hair sample, with no blood draw, no needles, and no fasting. Owners brush, cut, or gently pull 10-15 strands from anywhere on the horse's body, and 20-25 strands if the hair is shorter than one inch; the root is not required and medications and supplements do not affect results. 5Strands uses bioresonance technology, sourced from the European healthcare system, to analyze the sample's energetic frequencies and flag stressors before physical symptoms appear.

How are the results delivered and read?

After the lab receives the sample, 5Strands promises results within 5 days, delivered through a secure online account and the 5Strands mobile app for iOS and Android. Findings are color-coded so they are easy to act on: red signals a strong energetic disruption with full removal recommended, yellow indicates clear stress worth reducing or rotating, green means slight stress that may be tolerated in small amounts, and grey shows no noticeable stress. Hair samples are retained for 60 days, so owners can purchase digital upgrades later without resubmitting a new sample.

Which horses and owners is this test built for?

The kit works for all ages and breeds and is aimed at owners chasing the root cause of recurring issues such as itching, hives, digestive upset, dull coat, or a horse that simply is not thriving on its current feed. Because it screens intolerances rather than IgE allergies, it targets the inflammatory responses tied to enzyme deficiencies and gut health that standard allergy panels often miss. The company markets it as Veterinary Approved and Doctor Recommended, backed by a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

How do you order and what does it cost?

The Equine Comprehensive Intolerance & Imbalance Test is available directly at 5strands.com for $136.00, with a wholesale 6-pack option priced at $448.80 for barns, trainers, and rescues testing multiple horses. Free shipping applies to USA orders over $50, and customer support is reachable. The same hair-analysis approach is also offered for dogs, cats, and people, so a household can test every member of the family from one trusted source.
