BCO1
BCO1 (Beta-Carotene Oxygenase 1) is an enzyme that plays a key role in converting beta-carotene into retinal, an active form of vitamin A. Vitamin A is essential for vision, immune health, and cell communication. The activity of BCO1 influences how effectively dietary beta-carotene is transformed into vitamin A, affecting overall vitamin A levels and related health outcomes. Variations in the BCO1 gene can impact an individual’s ability to process beta-carotene and their risk of vitamin A deficiency.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the Europe. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

Absolutely perfect, results came after few days and finally after a lots of times visited GP, we finally know why my son has eczema - he is allergy to carrot. Thanks a lot.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
