Estrogen and Progesterone Test
To the product page
With the cerascreen® Free Estrogen + Progesterone Test you determine the concentration of two sex hormones in your saliva: that of the estrogen estradiol in its free, active form and that of the progestogen progesterone. This gives you an indication of a possible estrogen deficiency or estrogen dominance, among other things.
A lack of estrogen can manifest itself in women through menstrual disorders and intermenstrual bleeding and even lead to infertility. Too much estrogen (estrogen dominance) can also be harmful and lead to heavy menstrual bleeding, mood swings and the formation of cysts - estrogen dominance can also affect men.
Mineral Test

Magnesium, selenium and zinc are minerals vital for your physical and mental fitness. A deficiency can have serious consequences – such as a weakened immune system. The cerascreen® Mineral Test helps you find out quickly and easily whether your body lacks these minerals.
The cerascreen® Mineral Test is a sample-taking mail-in kit that determines the levels of magnesium, zinc and selenium in your blood. Take the sample conveniently and easily at home! The sample of human capillary blood will then be analysed in vitro in one of our certified medical partner laboratories. Receive your mineral levels test results within seven to nine business days after your sample has arrived in the laboratory.
Omega-3 Test
To the product page
The cerascreen® Omega-3 Test is a home test kit that allows you to analyse the composition of fatty acids in your blood. Our partner medical laboratory determines your omega-3 index and the ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids in your blood.
Omega-3 fatty acids are considered particularly healthy fats. But with our modern diets, we actually consume very little omega 3. This can become a problem – if we take in more omega 6 than omega 3, our body is at risk of inflammation and cardiovascular disease.
Testosterone Test
To the product page
Lethargy, fatigue, reduced muscle mass and reduced libido – these can be the unpleasant consequences of low testosterone levels. Testosterone is the main male sexual hormone which regulates muscle growth and physical fitness.
Do you want to know how high or low your levels of this important sex hormone are? With the cerascreen® Testosterone Test you can determine the testosterone levels in your saliva. This allows you to detect a testosterone deficiency or surplus and take targeted countermeasures through your diet and lifestyle.
Testosterone levels are highest in early adulthood and slowly decrease after the age of 30, which is due to a natural change of the blood levels. According to studies, testosterone decreases by one per cent every year. You should therefore keep an eye on your testosterone levels.
Vitamin D Test
To the product page
Worldwide, an estimated one billion people have inadequate levels of vitamin D in their blood, and deficiencies can be found in all ethnicities and age groups’ (Harvard School of Public Health, 2012). It is important to know your vitamin D level and supplement according to your individual needs.
Strong bones and muscles, mental fitness, prevention of osteoporosis and better athletic performance are just a few of the benefits that are linked to healthy vitamin D levels in countless scientific studies. Young adults, elderly people and women all especially need to keep their vitamin D level in mind because they are at a higher risk.
Unfortunately, a vitamin D deficiency can not be ‘tasted’ or ‘felt’. Therefore, it is important to test for a vitamin d deficiency regularly.
With the cerascreen® Vitamin D Test, a diagnostic send-in test that you can use at home, you can determine your blood concentration of vitamin D and to monitor the level of 25-OH vitamin D in your blood. The Vitamin D Test includes a free return envelope and analysis in our diagnostics laboratory as well as a detailed results report.
