• Easy to use at home
• Quick and reliable results
• Obtain a base line for unbound heavy metal concentration in your body using urine or saliva
• Track your body's detoxification/chelation capacity over time as you detoxify
• Can also use to test your water supply
  or any food source
• Objective, scientifically proven test procedure

This method (Heavy Metal Screen Test) identifies the following metals: zinc, copper, mercury, lead,cadmium and nickel. 
 

• Headaches
• Anger, irritability, depression
• High blood pressure, high cholesterol
• Lack of energy/listlessness
• Weight gain
• Difficulty concentrating and/or remembering things
• Rashes, allergic reactions or sensitivity
• Bloating, gas, or constipation

• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Diabetes
• Fibromyalgia
• Heart disease, arterial sclerosis
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Parkinson's disease
• Ulcers, and many others

1. Open the test-tube which contains Testsol reagent.

2. Place the small square test paper into the test-tube solution.

1. Using the pipette, add liquid solution (urine) to the 4 ml line on the tube. Close the tube and shakevigorously for 15 seconds.

2. Allow to stand for 2 minutes.

Any color change deviating from green viewed directly below the surface level of the test tube represents the presence of free or unbound metal ions. A grey color indicates a conglomeration of different metals. A detoxification procedure in tandem with the elimination of all sources of additional contamination is therefore recommended.

The Dithizone reagent only binds to the unbound or free metal ions. In other words, the metals that have not been neutralized by the body and are therefore increasing free radical production, are screened. In a healthy body, with a functioning detoxification system, or in the absence of heavy metals, there should be no free heavy metals found in the urine.

With this test, the type of metal present is actually secondary, since all free metal ions are toxic. Even metals that are usually considered beneficial such as zinc or copper should not be present in free form at high or medium concentrations under normal circumstances.

High amounts of unbound copper and zinc ions in the urine is a typical symptom of sub-acute mercury and cadmium intoxication, since these metals block the access to the metabolic process within the cell. These reactions are called displacement reactions and occur when heavy metals grab the biological spaces that should be filled by necessary minerals.

By taking the biological spaces of the essential minerals, (like a broken key which will plug up the lock) heavy metals create simultaneously a toxic accumulation of essential minerals.

At this stage of toxic contamination, the discharge of copper and zinc from the organism is not yet relevant, but as free electrically active metals, they can be made visible in this heavy metal screen test. The valuable essential metals copper and zinc, have in effect become toxic metals.

Diagnostically, the test indicates that the body cannot handle the heavy metals and uses liver, kidneys and other tissue as waste deposit sites. It is no surprise that other trace elements like calcium, magnesiuim and iron are also displaced and are becoming deficient.

If the screen does show a low to no metal concentration, but the person shows all signs of heavy metal intoxication, it is very likely that at this stage of metal toxicity, the body's detoxification capacities (liver, kidneys, lymphatic system, etc.) are exhausted. Consult with your health care professional for further advice.

Please Note: If you are using this test to chart your detoxifcation progress during any detox protocol, it is important that you discontinue the use of any chelation or detoxifying agents 24 - 36 hours prior to doing the test. This is because the chelating agent will bind any electrically active or unbound metal ions, therefore giving a false reading. Also, do not take any mineral supplements for 36 hours prior to testing, as this too can give a false reading.
