The complete test includes:
For recent or on-going exposures only. This is in addition to Basic Testing, which includes microscopic heavy metals observation of the blood.
Heavy metal exposure is on the rise. Common sources include cigarettes / vaping, all forms of food, well and public water, vaccinations, dental fillings, medicines, cosmetics, and air / land / water pollution.
Heavy metals are those which are not metabolized by the body and tend to accumulate in the soft tissues of the body. These metals may enter the body through food, water, air, or skin absorption. Heavy metal toxicity can result in damaged or reduced mental and central nervous function, lower energy levels, and damage to blood composition, lungs, kidneys, liver, and other vital organs. Long-term exposure may result in the physical, muscular, and neurological degenerative processes that mimic Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Muscular Dystrophy, heart arrhythmia, Multiple Sclerosis, and many more.
Heavy metals penetrate the body via breathing, eating, drinking, and skin absorption. An over-concentration of certain elemental toxic metals can result in heavy metal poisoning and often subtle or serious health problems. These include organ damage, behavioral changes, and difficulties with thinking and memory. Specific symptoms and their personal effects depend on the type and quantity of the metal endemic to the body.
Symptoms of heavy metal intoxication may include:
Who should consider heavy metals and essential elements testing?
What do the results mean?
