Comprehensive Toxicology Panel

Unit: μg/L, variousID: TOX001

What This Test Measures

Full toxic burden: heavy metals, pesticides, mold, metabolic toxins

Conventional vs. Functional Optimal Range

Conventional "Normal"
Heavy metals, glyphosate, mycotoxins, Organic Acids Test μg/L, various
Your doctor says you're "fine" anywhere in this range
Functional Optimal
All below detection or optimal μg/L, various
This is where you actually feel great

The gap between these ranges is why you feel terrible with "normal" labs. Conventional medicine waits for disease. Functional medicine optimizes for health.

Gabriel's Take

A toxicology panel can cover heavy metals (Hg, Pb, As, Cd, Al), glyphosate, mycotoxins and an Organic Acids Test. Environmental toxins can contribute to chronic illness: fatigue, brain fog, neurological issues, autoimmunity, cancer. Test, identify sources and remove exposure first, then support the body's own clearance with nutrition, fiber, hydration and sweating. Chelation is a prescription treatment with serious risks and happens only under a licensed clinician; binders such as activated charcoal have weak evidence and can block medicines. Functional medicine prioritizes lowering toxic load for longevity.

When This Test Is High

Toxicity: various symptoms per toxin (see individual entries)

When This Test Is Low

Low toxic burden = better health and longevity

Related Conditions

Heavy metal toxicity, mold illness, environmental illness, chronic fatigue

Recommended Follow-Up

Identify sources and remove exposure; chelation only under a licensed clinician after a validated test; binders have weak evidence
