What is a Urine Toxic Metals Test

A urine toxic metals test is a tool for you and your doctor to determine the retention of toxic metals in your body. Toxic metals are not required by your body, they adversely affect virtually every organ system and they disrupt the homeostasis of nutrient elements.

Analysis of the levels of toxic metals in your urine is an objective way to evaluate the accumulation of toxic metals in your body. Chronic, low-level exposure to toxic metals is common and can lead to an accumulation in the body, which is associated with a vast array of adverse health effects and chronic disease.
