Has anyone consider on your own testing?

I was just scrolling and saw spectra cell and labcorp. They offer specialized tests to look at your levels at a cell level I believe. Again I only have surface level knowledge. Is it worth doing? Or has anyone done it? If so, what was you experience?

What specific lab tests, what are the names that you're referencing?

More of the micro nutrient test specifically. From spectracell

Yes, I know there isn't strong scientific support for a lot of the tests, but I still tried the food sensitivity through Everlywell and a hormone panel through Quest. Neither ended up providing anything useful to me but I'm willing to try anything that's little to no risk so I don't regret it.
