COMPREHENSIVE URINE ELEMENT ANALYSIS (ESSENTIAL MINERALS & HEAVY METALS) 

​

Urine analysis is a simple way to measure levels of essential and toxic elements. The presence of toxic elements has been linked to neurological problems, memory impairment, learning difficulties and possibly, gastrointestinal issues.

Why we may consider this test for you

 

​

Urine can be used to look for essential element deficiencies and for the presence of toxic elements. Many practitioners use a chelating agent to release toxic metals from storage in the tissue so they can be eliminated in urine. Typically, the collection time is six to eight hours and is done at home.
