Toxic Element Profile (Blood) Test

Toxic Element Profile is a comprehensive set of blood and urine tests that evaluate exposure to heavy metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium. These metals are toxic and can cause a range of health problems, including neurological, renal, and cardiovascular disorders.

The Toxic Element Profile is designed to identify potential toxic exposures and guide appropriate treatment and management. The test includes a set of blood tests that measure levels of heavy metals, as well as urine tests that evaluate the excretion of heavy metals from the body.

Exposure to heavy metals can occur through a range of sources, including environmental pollution, contaminated water or food, and occupational exposure. The Toxic Element Profile is recommended for individuals at risk of heavy metal exposure, such as those working in industries involving metal processing or production, individuals living in areas with high environmental pollution, or individuals with a history of chronic exposure to heavy metals.

The Toxic Element Profile can help identify potential toxic exposures and guide appropriate treatment and management. Your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes or medications to help reduce exposure to heavy metals or manage underlying health problems related to heavy metal toxicity.

By taking the Toxic Element Profile, you can take charge of your health and ensure you are not at risk of toxic exposures to heavy metals.
