Heavy Metal Test
Heavy metal testing is a comprehensive diagnostic procedure designed to identify and measure harmful metals in your body. With this test, you can take proactive steps to safeguard your health and well-being by detecting and addressing potential toxicities early.
What is Heavy Metal Test?
Heavy metal testing involves taking a small blood sample, which is analysed using techniques like atomic absorption spectroscopy or mass spectrometry. These methods precisely measure the levels of metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium in your bloodstream. The results show if the metal levels are within a safe range or if they pose potential health risks, giving you clear guidance for next steps. It’s a straightforward process that provides detailed insights into your body’s exposure to toxic metals.
