This test checks for toxic metals in your body by analysing a urine sample collected over a 24 hour period. It helps identify exposure to metals that may come from food, drinking water, air pollution, work environments, dental materials or everyday household products.
Some metals have no useful role in the body and can interfere with normal biological processes if levels become elevated.
 
Why this test is useful
Toxic metals can accumulate over time and may contribute to symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, brain fog, digestive issues, hormone imbalance or immune disruption. Urine testing can help identify recent or ongoing exposure and assess how effectively your body is eliminating these metals.
 
A 24-hour urine collection provides a more complete and reliable picture than a single spot urine sample.
 
How the test works
You collect all urine over a 24-hour period using the container provided.
This method helps account for daily fluctuations in metal excretion.
The sample is returned to the laboratory for detailed analysis.

Who should consider this test
This test may be useful if you:
are concerned about environmental or occupational exposure to metals.
use well water or live in an area with known water or soil contamination.
work in industries such as construction, manufacturing, welding, electronics or healthcare.
have dental implants or metal-based dental work.
experience unexplained or persistent symptoms and want to explore potential toxic exposure.
want to monitor progress during a detox or exposure-reduction programme.
 
Understanding your results
Normal levels suggest exposure is within expected limits.
Elevated levels may indicate recent or ongoing exposure and reduced clearance.
 
Results are best interpreted alongside symptoms, medical history and possible exposure sources. Follow-up with a healthcare professional may be appropriate.
 
Returning Samples to the Lab
It is the user's responsibility to organise sample returns. Free courier collection is included with the order and instructions are provided in the sample collection kit. 
 
Results timeframe
Results available within 2–4 working days.
Timeframe begins after the laboratory receives your sample.
 
Important limitations
This test reflects recent or ongoing exposure and how metals are being excreted in urine.
It does not measure total lifetime body burden, as some metals can be stored in tissues rather than excreted.
Results may be influenced by hydration status and recent exposures.
Abnormal results do not confirm toxicity on their own and should not be used to make medical decisions without professional guidance.
