Chemistry at Work™ • Private Screening

Choose the screening approach that fits your workforce.

Different screening pathways provide different kinds of personal insight. Organizations can choose the collection method and level of information that best fit their workforce while individual results remain private to the employee.

Vitamins Minerals Amino Acids Key Biomarkers

Employer-sponsored. Employee-directed. Private individual results.

Chemistry at Work screening options
Three Screening Pathways

Different ways to explore personal chemistry.

Choose a cellular nutrient assessment, traditional laboratory biomarkers, or a convenient at-home screening option. Each pathway offers a different type of information and employee experience.

Blood-Based

Vitamin, Mineral & Amino Acid Insights

Cell Science Systems • CMA

A cellular nutrient assessment that provides individualized findings related to nutrient insufficiencies and borderline insufficiencies, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids and related nutrients.

  • Professional blood draw
  • Individual vitamin, mineral and amino acid findings
  • Individualized repletion recommendations
  • Retesting options available
  • Optional personalized supplement pathway

Laboratory Screening

Biometric & Laboratory Screening

Quest Diagnostics via Journeys

Traditional laboratory testing provides measurable biomarker baselines across areas such as metabolic, cardiovascular, thyroid, nutrient, and general health.

  • Blood-based laboratory biomarkers
  • Multiple panel configurations
  • Quest Diagnostics collection access
  • Personalized interpretation through Journeys
  • Follow-up and retesting options

At-Home Option

Vitamin & Mineral Imbalance Screening

5Strands • Hair Sample

A convenient non-blood screening option that uses a small hair sample to provide preliminary insight into vitamin and mineral imbalance patterns.

  • Simple at-home collection
  • No professional blood draw required
  • Private participant results
  • Vitamin and mineral imbalance insights
  • Fast, convenient employee experience

Cellular Nutrient Assessment

Vitamins • Minerals • Amino Acids

See nutrient patterns at the individual level.

The Cellular Nutrition Assay provides individualized information about nutrient insufficiencies and borderline insufficiencies across vitamins, minerals, amino acids and related nutrients. The laboratory report can also include nutrient repletion recommendations.

Individual nutrient assessment
Personalized repletion guidance
Professional blood collection
4–6 month retesting can be incorporated

For employer programs, testing can be structured so individual results are delivered directly to the participant rather than to the employer or Good Health Geek.

Optional Personalized Supplement Pathway

When an employee has an appropriate individualized recommendation, an optional personalized supplement pathway can be made available through an independent fulfillment partner. Customized formulations may be offered in capsule or powder form.

Biometric Testing via Journeys

Key Blood Biomarkers

Add measurable biomarker context.

Quest laboratory testing provides a familiar blood-based pathway for measurable biomarker data. Through Journeys, selected screening panels can be paired with participant-facing interpretation and appropriate follow-up guidance.

Metabolic markers
Cardiovascular markers
Nutrient markers
Thyroid & general wellness markers

Choose the biomarker depth that fits the program.

Panel selection can reflect program goals, desired testing depth, and the employee experience rather than forcing every organization into one fixed laboratory package.

Core Health

Foundational biomarkers for general health and wellness.

Nutrient Markers

Selected nutrient-related biomarkers and metabolic indicators.

Metabolic Health

Glucose regulation, A1c and related metabolic measures.

Cardiovascular

Lipids, inflammation and cardiovascular risk indicators.

Hormone & Thyroid

Selected hormone and thyroid markers where appropriate.

Expanded Biomarkers

Broader biomarker configurations for organizations seeking additional measurable context.

At-Home Screening

A simple at-home screening option.

5Strands uses a small at-home hair sample to provide preliminary vitamin and mineral imbalance insights. It offers a convenient entry point for employees who prefer a non-blood collection method.

  • Collect the sample privately at home
  • Mail the sample using the provided kit
  • Results are delivered privately to the participant
  • Results highlight preliminary areas for exploration.

Preliminary screening only. Findings do not confirm a deficiency or excess and should be verified when appropriate before supplementation or treatment decisions are made.

After Screening

Help employees understand what comes next.

Screening can be paired with independent professional support so employees can better understand their results, identify appropriate follow-up, and decide what questions to bring to their own healthcare providers.

Dietitian Guidance

Participating employees can access qualified nutrition professionals for individualized education and practical guidance when included in the program.

Verification & Follow-Up

Preliminary findings can be reviewed with an appropriate professional and, when needed, verified through additional testing before treatment decisions.

Retesting Options

Follow-up screening can be incorporated where appropriate to give employees another point of reference over time.

Individual screening results stay private.

Chemistry at Work™ is structured so employers can sponsor screening and education without receiving or managing an employee's individual screening results.

Private Results

Individual screening results are delivered to the participant through the appropriate testing or provider pathway.

No Employer Results Access

Employers do not receive an employee's individual laboratory or screening results through Chemistry at Work.

GHG Does Not Need the Data

Good Health Geek coordinates program delivery without reviewing individual screening results, which remain private to the participant.

Built for Employers

Simple for the employer. Private for the employee.

The selected screening pathway can be integrated into the Chemistry at Work™ rollout without requiring HR to handle individual screening information.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does every employee have to use the same testing option?

Screening strategy can be configured around the employer's Chemistry at Work™ program and selected testing pathway.

Does Good Health Geek receive employee test results?

Individual results are delivered through the applicable laboratory or provider pathway and are not provided to Good Health Geek for employer reporting.

Does the employer receive individual results?

No. Chemistry at Work™ is designed around employee privacy. Individual screening information is not provided to the employer.

Can employees be tested again later?

Retesting can be incorporated where appropriate. For example, an employer program may include a follow-up screening several months after the initial test.

Is professional support available?

Yes. Dietitian support may be included depending on the program. Independent professionals can help participants understand findings and identify appropriate follow-up, including verification of preliminary results where needed.

Is testing medical treatment?

No. Chemistry at Work™ provides health education and access to independent screening and support resources. Screening results are preliminary findings, not a diagnosis, and may identify areas worth discussing with a qualified healthcare professional. Good Health Geek does not diagnose conditions, prescribe treatment, or replace an employee’s healthcare provider.
