Is toxin exposure impacting your wellness?

We’re all exposed to toxins, nearly every day. Often times, we have no idea how much of it we are exposed to, or what health risks they may pose. Since air pollution and other environmental toxins are often an invisible threat, it’s important to be proactive, so you can take necessary steps to ensure optimal health. Life Extension offers a number of tests to help identify toxin levels in your body. This is done with stool, blood or urine samples that can usually be collected and shipped from the privacy of your own home.

What can toxin tests tell you?

  • If you have an unhealthy build-up of heavy metals
  • Mold exposure
  • Exposure to a variety of environmental pollutants
  • Whether your liver is functioning optimally

Glutathione is an antioxidant molecule that exists within cells, where it helps combat free radicals. Measurement of blood concentrations of glutathione can help guide dietary measures that boost levels of this beneficial compound.

Mercury, whole blood Blood Test

Measures whole blood mercury to assess organic mercury exposure
  • Save

Mercury is a toxic element that has no known use in the body. To evaluate possible recent organic mercury exposure, whole blood mercury testing, as opposed to measurement of mercury in serum or plasma, is the preferred method of testing.

Arsenic, whole blood Blood Test

Tests the blood for potentially toxic levels of arsenic
  • Save

The whole blood arsenic test evaluates levels of the element arsenic, which can be toxic to the body at high levels. Long-term or industrial exposure to arsenic is associated with several health concerns.

Aluminum, serum Blood Test

Measures blood levels of the metal aluminum

The metal aluminum has no known use in the human body and has been found to be elevated in the brains of Alzheimer’s disease patients. Blood testing can assure us of safe levels or flag potential toxicity.

Chromium, plasma Blood Test

Measures blood levels of the trace mineral chromium
