Maintaining good health starts with insight into what is happening in your body. Every day, your system is exposed to external influences and internal processes that release free radicals. Although these particles have a useful function, an excess can lead to oxidative stress, which can strain your healthy cells and affect the natural ageing process. With the Radicalen-Check from Testjezelf.nu, you get a reliable indication of your current status within minutes, so you can work purposefully on your vitality and well-being.
- Direct insight into your oxidative stress level by measuring MDA in the urine.
- Easy to perform at home without the intervention of a laboratory.
- Quick results within 3 minutes thanks to the clear colour scale on the tube.
- Supports a conscious lifestyle by helping you determine whether extra antioxidants or exercise are desirable.
How it works
The Radicalen-Check® measures the concentration of Malondialdehyde (MDA) in the urine. MDA is a specific byproduct that is created when free radicals oxidise fats in the body. Although free radicals are essential for converting energy and fighting unwanted invaders, an excess can be harmful to healthy tissues. This test acts as your personal health partner by making this process transparent, allowing you to make proactive choices for your daily routine and vitality.

Ingredients
Tube with 10 urine test strips, colour scale on the tube, Dutch manual.
Use & Dosage
With Radicalen-Check®, an indication of the level of free radicals can be obtained by measuring MDA in urine. After dipping the strip into the urine, the result can be determined after 3 minutes using the extensive colour scale. This allows a distinction to be made between a minimal, low, medium or high level of oxidative stress. The use of morning urine is recommended as this guarantees the most accurate determination. In the case of (strongly) elevated MDA values, one may consider switching to a healthier lifestyle (diet with antioxidant-rich foods and more exercise).
Safety & Disclaimer
Always consult a doctor or expert in case of abnormal values or persistent health complaints. A food supplement or self-test is a supplement to, not a replacement for, a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.
