Test Smarter, Not Harder
Healthyr uses microsampling technology to offer health tests that can be done in the comfort of your home. There is no need to visit a medical professional or lab– you collect your sample yourself using a simple finger prick.
This test is for you
If you have any of the following risk factors.
If you are over the age of 45, inactive, overweight, and/or have a close relative (e.g. parent, sibling, grandparent) who has been diagnosed with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, you are at higher risk of the condition yourself. If you have any of these risk factors, it is important to screen for prediabetes.
If you are experiencing symptoms of diabetes or prediabetes.
Some people with prediabetes may experience excessive thirst, frequent urination, blurry vision, or unusual tiredness. However, the majority of people with prediabetes will experience no symptoms at all, which is why it’s crucial to test for prediabetes regularly.
If you want to monitor your blood glucose levels.
Chronically high blood glucose levels can lead to complications such as heart disease, kidney damage, nerve damage, and eye damage. By monitoring your HbA1c and glucose regularly, you can catch early warning signs and reduce your risk of developing these complications through treatment.
About our labs and science
Accuracy

Reliability
Our tests use an accurate and reliable form of microsampling called Dried Blood Spot Testing. This form of testing has been used since the 1960s in Neonatal care and for testing in remote locations. You may be familiar with the heel prick performed on newborns during their initial health assessment– this is Dried Blood Spot Testing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your blood test is most accurate if you take it fasted, meaning before you have anything to eat or drink (other than water). We recommend taking it first thing in the morning.
Using the Kit ID number, register your test on behealthyr.com. This number is anonymous in our system but allows us to notify you when your test arrives at the lab and your results are ready. It also ensures the lab is able to connect your results to you.
Next, take a moment to get your blood flowing. This will help make your sample collection easier. Drink a tall glass of water for hydration, then wash your hands for a least one minute in warm water to improve circulation and blood flow.
Clean the finger you want to prick with the alcohol wipe. Remove the lancet cap then hold the lancet against the tip of your finger. Press the lancet button to perform the finger prick. Next, hold your pricked finger over the ADX card’s sample collection window. You can gently squeeze your finger to get more droplets (you’ll need about 8 in total to fill the card). You may also perform a “milking” motion, applying gentle pressure on either side of the base of your finger and slowly moving toward the fingertip.
Once filled, leave your ADX card to dry for at least one hour. Meanwhile, clean up and dispose of the used collection tools by sealing them into a bag and placing them in the garbage. As soon as your sample is dry, place it into the sample bag and then slide it into the prepaid envelope. You’ll want to mail your test the same day, so head to your nearest mailbox and drop it inside.
You will be notified when your sample arrives at the lab and then again when your results are ready to view.
Prediabetes is a condition in which blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. Having prediabetes increases the risk of heart attack and stroke and should be treated by a healthcare provider.
Most people with prediabetes do not experience any symptoms. However, some may have symptoms such as increased thirst, frequent urination, and blurred vision.
Yes, prediabetes can be reversed with lifestyle changes such as losing weight, increasing physical activity, and eating a healthy diet.
If left untreated, prediabetes can lead to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
Your results are most accurate if you take your test while fasted. We recommend taking your HbA1c + Glucose Test first thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything (other than water, of course!) to ensure accurate results. This includes supplements, so please wait until after your test to take your morning multivitamin or similar.
It is recommended that adults over the age of 45 get tested for prediabetes every three years. However, if you have risk factors for prediabetes, such as being overweight or having a family history of diabetes, you may need to get tested more frequently.
There are a number of options available if you receive an abnormal result. Depending on the biomarker out of range, you may choose to speak with your PCP or book a low-cost, same-day telehealth appointment here. In some cases, your physician may recommend medication or a prescription-strength supplement to help improve your levels. Our pharmacy service can help with that. Alternatively, if you are experiencing a nutrient deficiency such as low Vitamin B12, you may opt to start taking a multivitamin or targeted supplement to improve it.
Yes. Taking this test while pregnant can help identify Gestational Diabetes. However, this test should not replace any Gestational Diabetes testing ordered by your physician.
Yes, there is no reason you cannot take the HbA1c + Glucose Test while on your period.
No, medications will not interfere with the accuracy of the test. However, your results may reflect the impacts that certain medications may be having on your biomarker levels.
No, supplementation will not interfere with the accuracy of the test. However, your results may reflect the impacts that medication or vitamin supplementation may have on your blood biomarkers.
No, insurance is not required for any of Healthyr’s at-home health tests.
Nope! Everything, from lab fees to the envelope you mail your sample in, is included in the price of your test.
