Description
What’s in the kit?
Included in the HbA1c test kit is:
- 2 lancets
- 1 Vitamin D blood spot card
- 1 envelope for returning the card
- 1 gauze pad, 1 band aid, and 1 alcohol swab
Therefore, in the meantime we have provided you with a self-addressed envelope to our lab in Poland. Please use this envelope to return your sample to our lab in Poland. Kindly note that the envelope will require a postage stamp. You may choose either standard postal services or priority postal services with tracking, depending on your preference for transit time. If a description is required, please use ‘documents, as dried blood spots are classified as exempt specimens. Also you don’t need to disclose any value for the documents.
When you order your kit, you will also be participating as a citizen scientist in the world’s most comprehensive Alzheimer’s prevention project. You will be invited to retest your Cognitive Function every six months, and encouraged to reduce your Dementia Risk Index by joining COGNITION, the ‘brain upgrade’ program. This takes you through a six month cycle to motivate simple diet and lifestyle changes to reduce your Dementia Risk Index.
You may choose to retest every 3 months, 6 months or year and, can, at anytime, change your order. For example, if you bring one test into the ‘green’ on the DRIfT section of your DASHBOARD you may only wish to retest other important biochemical markers. If you have selected a retest option we’ll remind you.
Your data
Your data from this test will be fully anonymised and securely stored in our research database, meeting HIPAA and GDPR standards. By participating, you’re joining a global effort to advance independent research on brain health. Thank you for contributing to this important work.
Each test ordered is also a donation to our charitable research and education – thank you!
