Is the Detect Kit worth the investment?
The Detect Kit is absolutely worth it. It's the only way to get to the bottom of your individual condition. It's the only way to look beyond. You can't guess what's behind. A lot of Western medicine guesses what's behind the skin, but this goes deep and Dr. Eckel understands all the tests. — Pamela Lamb
