Your results and next steps

Start with the report

Intrinsic Prism organizes results by panel, flags values against the laboratory's reporting framework and adds AI analytics, detailed explanations, potential exposure causes and a personalized protocol.[2]

24/7 guidance is included to help you understand the report and follow your next steps.[2]

Visit How it Works and select Sample Report to explore the report format.

Read the flag in context

A flag shows how a measurement compares with the laboratory's reporting framework; it does not establish a diagnosis, exposure source, symptom cause or treatment by itself.[2]

CDC likewise distinguishes a measured chemical exposure from evidence that the chemical causes disease or an adverse effect.[8]

The exact product, building, food, workplace or date of exposure cannot be proved from a detected marker alone.[2]

Learn how reference ranges and percentile bands work.

Use the plan and guidance together

Your personalized plan brings together next steps for lifestyle, diet, water, air, environment and detoxification protocols.[3]

Our FAQ states that treatment decisions should be individualized and clinician-supervised, with risks, interactions and contraindications considered.[2]

Do not stop prescribed medication without speaking to the prescribing clinician.[2]

Use the included guidance for help understanding findings. For severe or rapidly worsening symptoms or another emergency, seek urgent medical care rather than waiting for website support.[2]

Make retesting a useful comparison

Retesting should answer a defined question and use collection conditions that can be compared with the baseline.[2]

Use the same specimen type and laboratory method, follow the same collection time and preparation instructions, and document major changes in diet, supplements, medications, exposure, hydration and treatment.[2]

Discuss the purpose and timing of any repeat test with your clinician. This guide is educational, not a personal treatment plan.
