Heavy Metals and Essential Elements Test Kit
ZRT Comprehensive Toxic & Essential Elements Profile measures 3 of the most common toxic heavy metals: Arsenic, Cadmium,, Mercury.,
Plus 7 essential nutritional elements that can be hazardous in high quantities: Iodine, Bromine, Selenium, Lithium, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc.
Environmental pollutants are all around us - in the air we breathe, in the water we drink, in the food we eat, and in materials, we touch. This profile measures toxic heavy metals and reveals levels of certain nutritional elements.
These elements directly or indirectly impact thyroid hormone synthesis and intracellular conversion of T4 to T3. While arsenic, mercury, and cadmium are known biological toxins, iodine, bromine, and selenium can potentially be toxic also if dietary intake, including excessive supplementation, is too high. Testing for these elements in urine provides an excellent assessment of the overall body burden of toxic elements and is an indicator of excessive or inadequate intake or supplementation of iodine and selenium.
Heavy Metals
In excess, and when persistent, they can affect the synthesis and actions of hormones essential for managing our general health.
Essential Elements
Overall, nutritional elements are only healthy when they are within optimal ranges. Levels too low or too high can have detrimental effects on health. Therefore, it's important to know if these are outside their optimal ranges.
This test measures for these essential elements, which can be hazardous in too high amounts: zinc, copper, magnesium, selenium, bromine, lithium and iodine.
People who will especially benefit from elements testing include those who:
This comprehensive profile includes:
Blood Spot Tests: Zinc, Copper, Magnesium, Cadmium, Mercury and Selenium
Dried Urine Tests: Iodine, Bromine, Selenium, Lithium, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury, Creatinine
