Vibrant America Neural Zoomer Plus | Neurological Autoimmunity Test

The Vibrant America Neural Zoomer Plus is an at-home finger-prick blood test that screens 48 immune markers linked to brain and nervous system health — including the infections that most often act as the trigger, such as Group A Strep, Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus and the herpes family. One small sample gives a broad view of possible autoimmune activity affecting the nervous system.

How the Neural Zoomer Plus Works

The test looks for antibodies — the fingerprints your immune system leaves when it reacts to brain and nerve structures. From a few drops of blood, the lab measures IgG, IgA and IgM reactivity to 48 neurological antigens and flags every marker green, yellow or red against reference ranges built on 2,000 healthy individuals.

What It Measures

Eight categories, one draw:

• Demyelination antigens — reactivity to MOG, MBP and other proteins of the myelin sheath that insulates your nerves.
• Brain autoimmunity — markers such as amyloid beta, tau and alpha-synuclein, tied to memory, movement and mood.
• Blood-brain barrier disruption — signals like GFAP and S100B that the brain’s gatekeeper is under strain.
• Brain inflammation — antibodies to NMDA, AMPA, GABA and dopamine receptors, the chemistry behind focus and mood.
• Peripheral neuropathy and neuromuscular markers — for tingling, numbness, weakness and muscle fatigue.
• Optical and autonomic markers — including aquaporin-4, linked to vision and balance.
• Infections — Group A Strep, EBV, CMV, HSV-1/2 and HHV-6/7, the common neurological triggers.

Who It’s For

For the symptoms that never got a proper explanation: brain fog, memory slips, mood swings, dizziness, tremors, tingling or chronic fatigue. This test can be helpful for those with PANS/PANDAS, autoimmune encephalitis, autism, and mental health conditions.

Suggested Use

The Neural Zoomer Plus is done entirely at home. Your kit contains everything you need: a small lancet, blood spot cards for a few drops from a finger-prick, and step-by-step instructions. Place the sample in the prepaid packaging and mail it to the lab; comprehensive results and explanations are emailed to you. Use as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a needle or a clinic visit? No — a finger-prick at home is enough. The kit includes the lancet, collection cards and prepaid return packaging.

What do the results look like? Every marker is flagged green, yellow or red, with an explanation of what it means — see a sample report.

Why does it test for infections too? Because infections are the most common trigger of neurological immune reactions — Group A Strep in PANS/PANDAS, and the EBV, CMV and herpes families in many other presentations. Seeing trigger and reaction in one report connects the dots.

Can I use it to track progress? Yes — each new report shows your previous value next to every marker, so you can see reactivity settle as you work through your protocol.
