Environmental Toxicity Test
Identify Environmental Toxicity Levels
- Test Type: Urine
- 30-Minute Health Coaching Call Included
Skin rashes, brain fog, poor sleep, and weakened immunity are just some of the common signs of years of environmental toxicity exposure from chemicals prevalent in today's world. With well over 77,000 man-made chemicals infiltrating our environment, it's no longer a question of whether or not your body is harboring toxins, but rather how many. This Environmental Toxicity Test will show you your "Total Toxic Load" so you can assess where you're at now and help you make the best decisions about your health going forward.
What’s Measured
- Environmental Pollutants: Every day, we are exposed to hundreds of toxic chemicals through products like pharmaceuticals, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, packaged foods, household products, and environmental pollutants in water, food, and air.
- Phthalates: May be the most widespread group of toxins in our environment, commonly found in many bath and beauty products, cosmetics, perfumes, oral pharmaceuticals, insect repellents, adhesives, inks, and varnishes.
- MEP, MBP, MEHP, MEOHP, MiBP Bisphenols: industrial chemicals used in plastics and resins, widely found in food containers, can linings, and receipts. BPA, BPS Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): chemicals in solvents, fuels, household products, and building materials.
- 2-,3-,4-MHA, PGO, NAP, NACE, NAPR, NADB, HEMA Pesticides: agricultural chemicals designed to kill weeds and insects but that can affect human health. AM, 2,4-D, 3-PBA, DEP Parabens: preservatives used in cosmetics, skincare, and some pharmaceuticals. EtP, PrP, BuP, MeP Other: additional toxins from industrial and consumer sources. DPP, NAE, PERC, OBZ
- Environmental Toxin Metabolites: This test measures 26 specific metabolites, the breakdown products that show how these toxins are processed in your body, providing a clear picture of your overall toxic burden.
- Phthalates Monoethylphthalate (MEP): Primary metabolite of diethyl phthalate, used in perfumes, lotions, and cosmetics. Monobutylphthalate (MBP): Metabolite of dibutyl phthalate, common in adhesives, cosmetics, and nail polish.
- Mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP): Primary metabolite of DEHP, found in medical devices, food packaging, and vinyl flooring. Mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate (MEOHP): Secondary metabolite of DEHP, formed after MEHP breakdown. Monoisobutyl phthalate (MiBP): Metabolite of diisobutyl phthalate, present in plastics, coatings, and hair sprays.
- Bisphenols Bisphenol A (BPA): Common in plastics and epoxy resins, a known endocrine disruptor affecting hormones and metabolism. Bisphenol S (BPS): BPA replacement in "BPA-free" products, with similar hormonal concerns. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) 2-,3-,4-Methylhippuric Acid (2-,3-,4-MHA): Metabolites of xylene, found in paints, gasoline, and industrial solvents.
- Phenylglyoxylic Acid (PGO): Metabolite of styrene/ethylbenzene, used in plastics, insulation, and car parts. N-Acetyl Phenyl Cysteine (NAP): Byproduct of benzene, a toxic compound in fuels and solvents. N-Acetyl (2-Cyanoethyl) Cysteine (NACE): Metabolite of acrylonitrile, linked to acrylic fibers, carpets, plastics, and cigarette smoke.
- N-Acetyl (Propyl) Cysteine (NAPR): Formed from 1-bromopropane, used in adhesives, dry cleaning, and electronics cleaning. N-Acetyl (3,4-Dihydroxybutyl) Cysteine (NADB): Also from 1-bromopropane, with exposure from solvents in industrial cleaning.
- 2-Hydroxyethyl Mercapturic Acid (HEMA): Metabolite of ethylene oxide or vinyl chloride, used in plastics, antifreeze, and PVC. Pesticides Atrazine Mercapturate (AM): Metabolite of atrazine, a herbicide widely used in corn production, linked to hormone disruption.
- 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid (2,4-D): Common herbicide in agriculture and landscaping. 3-Phenoxybenzoic Acid (3-PBA): Breakdown product of pyrethroid insecticides, used in agriculture and pest control.
- Diethylphosphate (DEP): From organophosphate pesticides, which interfere with nerve function. Parabens Ethylparaben (EtP): Preservative in cosmetics and drugs, absorbed through skin and ingestion. Propylparaben (PrP): Found in foods, cosmetics, and drugs, linked to estrogenic activity. Butylparaben (BuP): Used in sunscreens and processed foods, associated with endocrine disruption.
- Methylparaben (MeP): Preservative in lotions and skincare, linked to oxidative stress and hormonal imbalance. Other Diphenyl Phosphate (DPP): Metabolite of triphenyl phosphate, a flame retardant in furniture, electronics, and nail polish.
- N-Acetyl (Carbomethyl) Cysteine (NAE): Metabolite of acrylamide, formed in fried foods, coffee, and cigarette smoke. Perchlorate (PERC): Used in fireworks, flares, and rocket fuel, disrupts thyroid iodine uptake. Oxybenzone (OBZ): UV-filter chemical in sunscreens, plastics, and packaging, linked to endocrine disruption.
