I look at it this way getting a test done from a reputable lab can only benefit you and add to your ability to choose for yourself what treatments you feel you need and do not. There is nothing wrong with supplementation and if the test tells you that you are low on something that has also been confirmed by blood work then you are probably low. If the test shows something that hasn't been tested for in blood or tissue samples it also gives you another avenue to take toward ruling out potential problems or correcting them. Blood work doesn't tell the truth either not alone anyway. Why not be armed with as many options that are available to you.

Dr. Stephen Barrett could likely himself be the biggest fraud. Search google with Dr. Stephen Barrett fraud
