Get an 'At-Home' Alcohol Nail TestQuick, Easy, Discreet
Teenage alcoholism is a serious problem in today's society. Alcohol ranks as the most common substance abused in high school-aged teens. The first and most common place children and teens are exposed to alcohol use are at home. Alcohol may be easily accessed and less monitored there. Genetic alcohol predisposition also can play a large part in why some teens can be more inclined to form a more addictive relationship with alcohol. Peers and family model the behavior, which is quickly adopted to 'have fun' and 'relax.' What starts as casual drinking advances into dependence and addiction over time. So, whether you have concerns about your child or family member using alcohol or want a test for your own peace of mind, our non-invasive alcohol nail test could be the right test for you.
How can Alcohol be Detected in Nails?
When alcohol is consumed, it is processed by the liver, and its metabolites are released into the bloodstream.
An alcohol nail test looks for the presence of ethyl glucuronide (EtG), a specific long-term biomarker of ethanol (the intoxicating agent in alcoholic drinks). These EtG biomarkers become trapped within the keratin fibers along the length of the nail.
A nail alcohol testing can only show abstinence during an approximate six-month (fingernails) or 12-month (toenails) period by identifying whether EtG is present in the sample. We can't say when or how much alcohol was consumed, only whether someone has consumed alcohol during that period.
