What is the purpose of this test?
The ZRT Lab's Toxic & Essential Elements Urine Profile is a powerful tool that checks for certain elements in your body, identifying potential health risks associated with their levels. Some of these elements, like arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, can be harmful if you have too much in your body. Other elements, like iodine, selenium, and lithium, are essential, meaning your body needs them to stay healthy. This test measures these elements in your urine to help doctors understand if your levels are too high or too low.
This test is not just important, it's proactive. It helps doctors figure out if you might be exposed to dangerous levels of toxic elements or if you're not getting enough of the essential ones you need. If the test shows something wrong, doctors can give advice on how to fix it, such as changing your diet or avoiding certain things that might be causing the problem. By keeping your levels of these elements in balance, you can stay healthier and avoid getting sick.
