| This is a laboratory test that can be done from a home blood collection kit. It will find your Lewis blood group (Lewis a, Lewis b), NOT your ABO blood group (see our laboratory ABO, Rhesus and A subgroups test or combined ABO and Lewis test). This test will tell your secretor status (whether you secrete your ABO antigens), unless you are Lewis negative (Le a-), (Le b-): about 5% of individuals.
Test contents:
- Instruction leaflet
- Blood collection container with preservative
- Single-use lancets X 2
- Sterile swab
- Mailing container
- Plastic bag for return of used lancets
- Laboratory request form
- Prepaid return mailing envelope (UK freepost)
Send a few drops of blood from your finger to the laboratory and we will send your Lewis blood group by post. Normal turnaround time approx. 1 week.
Can be used in conjunction with the ABO and Rhesus blood group test when following the blood group diet (Eat Right 4 Your Type) as detailed in the book Live Right 4 Your Type by Dr. Peter D'Adamo.

Please note: The results are for educational purposes only. If your Lewis blood group is Lewis negative you may wish to purchase a saliva secretor status test at additional cost, details will be included in your test results.
