> mescreen is the world's first at-home mitochondrial efficiency test. Originally developed for NASA's Twin Study, it measures how well your cells produce energy (mitochondrial function) from a simple finger-prick blood sample collected at home, with results in 3-4 weeks.

mescreen helps people find the root cause of fatigue, optimize energy and recovery, and track cellular health over time. The test is research-use-only and has not been reviewed by the FDA; results can be reviewed with a healthcare provider.
