A urine toxicology screen can reveal hidden heavy metal overload that may be silently impacting your brain, hormones, and overall health.

Comprehensive Urine Toxicology

Heavy metals such as mercury, lead, and cadmium can accumulate in the body over time, contributing to fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, digestive issues, and chronic inflammation. At Health & Vitality Center, we use advanced urine toxicology screening to evaluate cellular heavy metal burden and uncover toxic exposures that may be affecting your well-being. Unlike standard testing that only measures circulating levels in blood or hair, this specialized assessment helps determine how much toxin is stored in your tissues, allowing us to develop a targeted detoxification plan. Schedule your urine toxicology screen with Health & Vitality Center and take the first step toward reducing toxic burden and restoring optimal health.

Urine Toxicology Screen Is Used to Rule Out Heavy Metal Overload

You may have heard of doctors performing a urine toxicology screen in drug overdose or poisoning cases. However, at the Health & Vitality Center, the term “urine toxicology screen” is mainly used to refer to a diagnostic test for heavy metal overload or toxicity. Dr. Shiva Lalezar – a holistic doctor in Los Angeles specializing in integrative and Functional Medicine – utilizes urine toxicology screens as part of a battery of diagnostic tests to evaluate your overall health and wellness. Polluted cities such as Los Angeles are loaded with air toxins and smog, and the drinking water is also laden with toxins.

How Does the Test Work?

After receiving a chelating provoking agent, you will collect your urine for six hours and send a urine sample to the lab. The specialized lab analyzes your urine for various toxic heavy metals, including lead, mercury, and cadmium.

Hair analysis or blood test is not an accurate method to measure how much heavy metal has accumulated at a cellular level. It only indicates how much toxin has been excreted in the hair or blood.
