The 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine test conveniently measures oxidative DNA damage via a urine sample from home. It analyzes the marker 8-OHdG (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine) – a scientifically recognized indicator of oxidative stress at the cellular level.

Oxidative stress is caused, among other things, by chronic stress, environmental toxins, inflammation, or lifestyle factors and can contribute to premature cell aging and chronic diseases. The test is particularly suitable for persistent fatigue, the effects of stress, or for preventive care.

→ Key points for family and partner testing

Value for the whole family Testing together shows how things connect, supports genuine prevention and helps everyone understand diet, stress and health better – and above all makes it easier to take concrete, useful steps.

Clear details per person: for everyone tested we need a name and date of birth, so the laboratory can match everything unambiguously.
An individual email address: each person needs their own email for secure digital access. Where that is not possible, we send the results as a PDF to a shared address.
Clear labelling: samples and forms must each be assigned to exactly the right person.

💚 Together we make people healthy.

→ Important: follow the instructions

Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters, so that your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood– can be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Turnaround: please allow a little time
Our lab analyses are precise, thorough and take the whole picture into account. The evaluation therefore usually takes 7–21 days after the sample arrives at the laboratory.
Good diagnostics take time – and that is the quality you get from us.

Prompt notification
As soon as your results are in, we let you know straight away.

We stay with you
We look forward to supporting you on your way to more health and balance. 🌿💛

→ For a possible reimbursement from your private insurance

If you want to claim from your private insurance, this is how it works with us:

A short online consultation with one of our therapists. We go through your symptoms and take a brief case history.
A referral for the right lab tests: after the consultation you receive a referral that you can submit to your private insurer.

Many private insurers cover the cost in full or in part– some not at all. That is unfortunately normal and depends entirely on your policy. We will support you through the process as best we can.

Pairs well with

Why is this test, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, useful?

Reactive oxygen species (free radicals) are formed in normal metabolism and in larger amounts, for example, during inflammation or through external influences. They can oxidise DNA building blocks. 8-Hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is one such oxidation product of guanine; the lab determines its concentration.

What is being tested?

The marker tested is 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in urine – an internationally recognized indicator of oxidative DNA damage.
It shows how much stress your body is currently under at the cellular level – for example, due to stress, inflammation, or environmental factors.
A high 8-OHdG level may indicate an imbalance between free radicals and the body's own defenses (antioxidants).

It's that easy

The test is a simple self-test using a urine sample – conveniently from home.
You collect a portion of your morning urine, fill the sample tube, and send it to our partner laboratory using the enclosed shipping bag.
All tools and detailed instructions are included. After approximately 7–10 days, you will receive your results via app or email—including a 10-minute evaluation with the ORY team.

Individual Holistic Diagnostics

Measure values, understand connections – as a basis for the conversation with your practitioner.

When does the product make sense?

The test determines 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). This substance is formed when guanine – a building block of DNA – is oxidised by reactive oxygen species; it is then excreted. In research, 8-OHdG is a commonly used marker for oxidative changes to DNA.

Why should I take the test at all?

Oxidative stress describes an imbalance between reactive oxygen species and the cell's antioxidant systems. 8-OHdG is one of the products formed on DNA in this process. The measured value describes the state at the time of sampling; how it should be interpreted is clarified in a conversation with a doctor or naturopath.

What can I actually do with the results?

The report contains your 8-OHdG value and the lab's reference range. On request, the ORY team will discuss the values with you free of charge. What a value means for you and whether further examinations make sense is clarified by a doctor or naturopath.

FAQs

For more information, please see our FAQs.

Can I take the test without any symptoms?

Yes, the test can also be done without symptoms. It measures a single laboratory value at the time of sampling. A result does not predict whether an illness will occur later; interpretation belongs in a conversation with a doctor or naturopath.

Can the test help me better understand my fatigue?

Exhaustion can have many causes, and a single laboratory value does not explain it. 8-OHdG describes oxidative changes to DNA at the time of sampling. Persistent exhaustion should be clarified by a doctor; the value can be one element in that conversation.

Why is this test particularly recommended for people under a lot of stress or pressure?

In studies, physical and emotional strain, lack of sleep, smoking or environmental factors are associated with increased formation of reactive oxygen species. The 8-OHdG test measures an oxidation product of DNA; whether and how a strain shows up in it varies from person to person.

Why this test?

Oxidative stress is a key cause of cellular aging, chronic inflammation, and degenerative diseases. The 8-OHdG level indicates how much your DNA is affected by free radicals – long before clinical symptoms appear. Ideal for people with chronic fatigue, long-term COVID, neurostress, or those interested in preventative health.
