Know what toxins are compromising your body's ability to be healthy and vital.
Product Info
The Total Tox-burden is a simple and quick test that provides comprehensive insight on the levels of heavy metals, mold toxins, and environmental toxins in your body.
Product Description
This test measures the levels of 20 heavy metals, 31 mycotoxins, and 39 environmental toxins present in your body. Knowing your total toxin burden is the first step to removing those toxins and feeling better.
Symptoms and Risk Factors
Is this test right for me?
If you've tried diet and exercise but still can't reach your goals, toxins may be getting in the way! This test trio provides robust insight into your total toxin burden.
How accurate is this test?
The Vibrant Total Tox Burden panel uses the most advanced method to measure 89 different markers to assess toxic burden in one simple urine specimen.
How should I prepare for this test?
Fasting is not required for the Heavy Metals, Environmental Toxins, or Mycotoxins tests. However, fasting for 12 hours may increase the amount of toxins excreted in urine, so consult with your ordering provider about whether they recommend you fast for 12 hours before the test. Some Vibrant America ordering providers may prefer you do a "provoked" test which requires taking a "provoking agent" (such as NAC, glutathione, DMSA, or EDTA) prior to testing to promote the release of body stores of metals so that the metals are "mobilized" (moved through the body) and excreted (released) in urine. Vibrant America does not require a provoked test, nor does Vibrant America recommend a specific provoking agent, dose, or timing of provocation before testing. Discuss with your ordering provider whether they recommend a provoked or unprovoked test, and which provoking agent, dose, and timing of provocation and urine collection they recommend for you. Please note that unprovoked test results cannot predict provoked test results as the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (release) of heavy metals in urine is highly variable in different people and is influenced by a number of physical, dietary, and environmental factors. Overall, the majority of Vibrant America ordering providers order unprovoked testing. Avoid foods high in iodine (seafood, dairy, seaweed) and selenium (Brazil nuts) as they have a strong binding affinity for heavy metals (they act like "heavy metal magnets"). Consuming these foods prior to the Heavy Metals test may cause falsely lowered results. For best test performance, collect the first morning urine upon awakening, prior to eating or drinking.
