Heavy Metals Testing
Essential Nutrient and Toxic Elements Testing
We understand the critical importance of assessing nutrient and toxic (heavy metals) elements in the body.
Why Heavy Metals Testing Matters:
Heavy metals, when accumulated in the body, can pose significant risks to organ systems and overall health. They have the potential to disrupt the balance of essential nutrients, leading to various health issues and complications. Understanding the presence and levels of heavy metals is essential for maintaining optimal health and well-being.
Our Testing Options
Our comprehensive testing options cover a variety of sample types for heavy metals testing including urine, hair, stool, whole blood, and red blood cells. Each with its own advantages and considerations.
Several factors influence the choice of sample type,
Urine Testing: Ideal for assessing recent exposure and ongoing excretion patterns.
Hair Testing: Provides insights into long-term exposure and accumulation of heavy metals.
Stool Testing: Useful for evaluating gastrointestinal absorption and excretion of heavy metals.
Whole Blood Testing: Offers a snapshot of current heavy metal levels circulating in the bloodstream.
Red Blood Cell Testing: Provides a deeper analysis of heavy metal levels within red blood cells, reflecting long-term exposure.
