Toxic & Essential Metals Profile 24-Hour Urine Test
Item # LC900013
Checks for the status of 20 toxic metals
The Toxic and Essential Metals Profile provides a deep dive into both the body’s toxic metal burden and excretion for 20 toxic and 18 essential elements with a convenient, non-invasive 24-hour urine collection.
Metal toxicities are known to have an adverse impact throughout the body depending on the type of metal, length of exposure, and how well your detoxification system works. Long term exposure can impact cognitive and peripheral nerve function, digestive health, kidney and liver function, immune status, and more. This panel tests urinary excretion of 20 potentially toxic metals:
- Aluminum
- Antimony
- Arsenic
- Barium
- Beryllium
- Bismuth
- Cadmium
- Cesium
- Gadolinium
- Lead
- Mercury
- Nickel
- Palladium
- Platinum
- Tellurium
- Thallium
- Thorium
- Tin
- Tungsten
- Uranium
High or low levels of beneficial elements may also have adverse health effects. This panel provides insight into 18 essential elements and may help identify abnormal patterns of metabolism and health concerns associated with changes in their urinary excretion:
- Boron
- Calcium
- Chromium
- Cobalt
- Copper
- Iron
- Lithium
- Magnesium
- Manganese
- Molybdenum
- Phosphorus
- Potassium
- Selenium
- Sodium
- Strontium
- Sulfur
- Vanadium
- Zinc
Note: Processing Laboratory: Doctor’s Data
Turnaround Time: 1-2 weeks from date received
Restrictions: No kits available in PA, AK, or HI.
This test is provided as a 24-hour collection. Please review the instructions carefully for proper collection procedures. Collection begins after discarding the first urine void of the day. Collect all urine thereafter (starting with the second void of the day), up to and including the first-morning void of the following day. Drink water to stay hydrated.
Life Extension offers urine, stool, and blood test panels for assessing exposure and elimination of different metals. The best panel depends on the specific metal’s route of accumulation and excretion. Please contact a Life Extension Wellness Specialist for personalized guidance on the best test selection.
