With countless fecal test options on the market, WE the consumers want to know which is actually the best and perhaps which ones we should avoid. Between the Mcmaster, Modified Wisconsin, and Parasight, we got a good picture of what fecal tests on the market look like and what sort of complications you can expect. Not all Mcmaster tests came back the same, one company refused to disclose what type of test they run, and some tests took almost 3 weeks to get our results! Find out more in today's episode.
