What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing frequent infections, slow healing, or unexplained fatigue that could point to a weakened immune system. It helps if you have a history of immune concerns and want to see how well your body's defense cells respond and remember past exposures, like a tetanus vaccination. It's also useful if you're being monitored for conditions that affect immune memory or cell-mediated immunity.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account along with an explanation of what a normal proliferative response looks like compared to yours. If your response is lower than expected, simple next steps include focusing on sleep, reducing stress, and eating a nutrient-rich diet to support immune health, then retesting after a few months to track change. If your results show a very weak or absent response, it's a good idea to seek medical care right away since this can signal a serious immune problem. You can download the full lab report anytime and use the trends feature to watch how your immune function changes over time.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common signs include getting sick more often than usual, infections that take a long time to clear up, or wounds that heal slowly. Ongoing fatigue, recurring fevers, or a known history of immune-related health issues are also reasons people look into this test. If you've had unusual reactions to vaccines or infections in the past, it may also be worth checking.

How can I naturally support immune cell function?
Getting consistent, quality sleep is one of the best ways to help your immune cells work properly. Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and protein gives your body the building blocks it needs for a strong immune response. Regular moderate exercise, stress management, and staying hydrated also help keep your immune system functioning well, while smoking and excess alcohol can weaken it.
When will I get my results?
Results are typically ready within about 7 days after your sample is collected. This timeframe allows the lab to properly culture and measure how your lymphocytes respond to the test stimuli. You'll be notified as soon as your results are available in your account.
Who should consider this test?
This test is a good fit for anyone with a history of frequent or unusual infections, or those who've been told they may have an immune system concern. People recovering from serious illness, undergoing treatments that affect immunity, or simply wanting a clearer picture of their immune health may also benefit. It's also useful for tracking immune recovery over time.
What is cell-mediated immunity and why does it matter?
Cell-mediated immunity is the part of your immune system that uses specific white blood cells, called lymphocytes, to recognize and fight off things your body has seen before, like certain infections or vaccines. It matters because this type of immune memory helps protect you from getting seriously sick when you're exposed to the same threat again. Weak cell-mediated immunity can leave you more vulnerable to infections and slower to recover from illness.
What does a low or weak lymphocyte response mean?
A low or weak response means your immune cells aren't reacting as strongly as expected when exposed to a familiar substance, which can suggest your immune memory or overall immune function isn't as strong as it should be. This can happen due to chronic stress, poor nutrition, certain illnesses, or some medications. If your result is very low, it's important to seek medical care to figure out the underlying cause.
How often should I retest?
If your first result is normal and you're not experiencing symptoms, retesting isn't usually necessary. If you're actively working to improve immune health or monitoring a known condition, retesting every 3 to 6 months can help you track progress. Your practitioner-free lab report will help you compare results side by side using the trends feature.
What should I do if my results are abnormal?
Start by reviewing the explanation provided with your report to understand how far outside the normal range your result falls. Focus on supportive lifestyle changes like better sleep, nutrition, and stress reduction, and plan to retest in a few months to see if things improve. If your result is significantly abnormal or you have concerning symptoms, seek medical care promptly.

Demo results
Tetanus-induced Lymphocyte Proliferation Stimulation Index: 45
Demo results
Low Response (<50) Normal Response (50-150) High Response (>150)
Stimulation Index: 45

What this means

This result shows a stimulation index below the typical normal range, meaning your immune cells reacted more weakly than expected to the tetanus antigen. This could suggest reduced immune memory or a temporarily weakened immune system. It doesn't diagnose a specific condition on its own but is a signal to look closer at your overall immune health.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More advanced tests may take longer due to complexity.
