Scientists are increasingly uncovering the widespread effects of
toxic exposure on learning, memory and behavior in humans. Accumulation
of heavy metals like lead in the body can dramatically impair cognitive
function,1 and the amount of toxins necessary to produce symptoms
is turning out to be far less than previously believed.
Aluminum
has been shown to specifically damage learning, memory, and cognitive
ability and has been suggested as a possible contributing factor
in dementia and alcoholic amnesia.2-3 Research on Alzheimer's patients
show they are much more likely to exhibit elevated levels of mercury,
cadmium, and aluminum.4
Elemental
Analysis (Hair, Blood, or Urine) determines levels of
toxic and nutritional elements in the body using a hair, blood,
or urine sample. Each specimen type provides a unique window on
element status. A hair sample, for example, will reflect chronic
toxic exposure and long-term nutritional deficiencies, while blood
and urine assessment will gauge the effects of more recent imbalances.

All
lab tests can be done through the mail in the privacy of your own
home, except blood tests, we send you to a lab to have your blood
drawn for these. After you pay for the test we mail you the kit,
the results take two weeks, the test results will be mailed to us
and we will call you to go over the results, its that easy! All
tests include the consultation for the report of findings.
