How long does the test take?

Only 20-30 minutes and you can always come back to the test if you want to take a break. Your data will be automatically saved during the process.

How accurate is the test?

Pictured-based food and portion size is so far the most accurate and easiest non-invasive method to assess your diet. The questionnaire and algorithms were used by leading medical institutions and projects like The American Gut Project, which is the World’s Largest Citizen Microbiome Project.

What kind of nutrients does it report?

It reports all your macronutrient intake, such as carbohydrates, fiber, fat (saturated and unsaturated fat), and protein. It also reports all your micronutrients such as vitamin C, D, E, K, and B vitamins, as well as minerals.

Experts Explain Why It Is Important to Know Your Nutrients Intake

NPR

"The real value of nutrition tests is that they get people to stop, and step back and think about eating a healthy diet."

Wikibooks.org

"Our bodies contain similar nutrients to the food we eat. Therefore, depending on what kind of food we are consuming and the contents of that food, we are affecting our nutrient levels and over all, our health. "

WebMD

"Everything you eat becomes a part of not only your inner being, but the outer fabric of your body as well"

The Great Courses Daily

"What you eat will ultimately make up portions of your cells, skin, hair, blood transportation systems, muscles, fat, and more. These nutrients are not just being transported throughout our digestive systems and blood; they are also an ingrained part of every cell tissue that makes us who we are and what we do"

Our Story

It began with two Cornell scientists who were researching ways to make human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) without using actual human milk. They became fascinated by the amazing health benefits of this unique fiber and determined to develop the best HMO prebiotics by leveraging the latest scientific findings.

At Layer Origin, we firmly believe we are what we eat. The food we consume feeds us and the bacteria in our gut. By strategically building the bacterial ecosystem in our gut, we can actually optimize many aspects of our health — and it can work at any age.

This philosophy drives us every day in our pursuit of the world's most forward-thinking and most advanced prebiotics. Pure, effective, and clinically-proven, PureHMO® super prebiotics help us build a robust gut to support every layer of our health.

Super Helpful Tool

This was a really helpful and reliable tool to help me understand where in my diet I needed support. I could actually confirm some of the potential imbalances based on mineral testing I’ve done. This can’t account for absorption, but still very helpful if people are looking for a place to start to balance their nutrition!

Tamed my tummy

This product has corrected my tummy issues and bowel issues. My overall health has improved too! Love it!

pretty good overall view

the only drawback is that it requires you to remember and properly guess how many times you ate something. since i do track exactly what i eat from time to time, it wasn't perfect, but for what it is, it is pretty remarkable and close enough to get a rough idea of what you eat.

Not Ready For Prime Time

I'm certain that the makers of this test had good intentions. And of course, they had to try to create a test that would be "one-size-fits all". But that, of course, is not possible, since humans have much bio-individuality and also... because there are "many ways to skin a cat" when it comes to creating a "healthy" diet. I'm eating a diet that is jam-packed with nutrition, is super nutrient-dense, is replete with healthy fats and fat-soluble vitamins, has NO junk foods or heavily-processed foods or inflammatory, rancid seed oils. Also, I'm using a few hundred dollars, (per month), of freeze-dried, pasture-raised beef and sheep organ and gland supplements, which are likely among the most absorbable and worthwhile supplements available today. Among other things, I'm using a blend of 14 freeze-dried purple and red berries and fruits, which are loaded with all manner of micronutrients. Finally, I eat no sugar or desserts of any kind. But the "quiz" asked the questions that are programmed to be asked, then told me that my diet is poor. This quiz might be helpful for people who are eating the S.A.D. and who wish to improve their situation, but for those who are a bit more sophisticated in their approach to health, I would not become discouraged by these test results, nor would I lose any sleep over them.

great

very informative
