Aluminum, serum Blood Test
Item # LC071548
Measures blood levels of the toxic metal aluminum
The metal aluminum has no known use in the human body and has been found to be elevated in the brains of Alzheimer’s disease patients. Blood testing can assure us of safe levels or flag potential toxicity.
Aluminum is ubiquitous in our environment as it is the third most prevalent element in the earth's crust. The aluminum we are exposed to is in products we use such as antiperspirants, in the water we drink, and utensils we use such as foil and cookware. People with chronic renal failure, especially if they are on long-term hemodialysis, are particularly susceptible to accumulation of aluminum in their bones. Instructions Fasting is not required for this test. Take all medications as prescribed. |
