What is your Mineral Balance?
In the Mineral and Heavy Metal Test, someone tells us they are stressed, tired, anxious, and overwhelmed. This is the first test we reach for.
For heavy metal toxicity, arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury are among the four most common heavy metals that cause health-related issues. Worse, exposure can happen daily, even from the skin and cosmetic products approved to put on our bodies!
This Mineral and Heavy Metal Test will enable you to see how well your nervous system is handling stress, what stage of adrenal dysfunction you may be in, what your mineral reserves are like, and if you’re dealing with higher levels of toxic heavy metals. This is because if you are not balanced regarding your electrolyte and mineral levels, you cannot deal with stress in your life adequately.
