My question - those are great tests - how does one who cannot order their own tests (and sure cant afford to pay for them outside of insurance world) get them done? Being a guinie pig - as many of us know - is not pleasant and I would love to be able to show list to docs?????? Anyone with suggestions?
I would suspect any doctor who did not help with this, as being ignorant.

Here is another site with the ethnic breakdown of the various enzyme systems:

Don't think all doctors understand liver metabolism. I would venture to say,
Kmeb's does not. He won't entertain the thought because it would show his ignorance.

The new liver metabolism test is expensive, and I don't think it is covered by all insurances.

How to order a test:

Done with a cheek/buccal swab.
