Overview

Think of arsenic as an unwelcome intruder in your body—a toxic heavy metal that has no business being there and can cause serious damage when it accumulates over time. The Arsenic test acts like a security system, detecting whether this dangerous substance has found its way into your bloodstream through contaminated water, certain foods (especially rice and seafood), or environmental exposure. Unlike nutrients your body needs, arsenic serves no beneficial purpose and essentially acts as a poison that can silently threaten your health.

This test is particularly valuable if you live in an area with known water contamination, work around arsenic-containing materials, or have unexplained symptoms like unusual skin changes or neurological issues that might signal heavy metal toxicity. By measuring your current arsenic levels, the test helps identify whether exposure is occurring and at what level, giving you and your healthcare provider crucial information to address potential health risks. Since even low-level, long-term arsenic exposure can increase your risk of cancer, heart disease, and other serious conditions, this test serves as an early warning system that can guide protective measures and treatment if needed.

No special preparation required. Inform healthcare provider of recent seafood consumption, occupational exposure, and any supplements that might affect arsenic levels.

Understanding results

Results show arsenic levels compared to safe reference ranges. Elevated levels indicate toxic exposure requiring immediate evaluation, source identification, and appropriate detoxification treatment.

After the test

Address arsenic toxicity through source identification and elimination, chelation therapy if indicated, supportive care, and regular monitoring. Work with toxicologists and environmental health specialists.

Having seen the GP regularly, I thought I had everything covered. I had no idea I had Type II diabetes as I was symptomless. Now I can manage it before it gets really bad. I never would have caught it this early if I hadn't used Bloody Good.
