This Heavy Metal Test kit is an at home detection tool used to expose the hidden poisons that literally get stored within the body and rob us of health and vitality.
Seeing what you cannot see
Heavy metals are poison to your body! For decades now, exposure to heavy metals which cannot be seen by the naked eye have reeked havoc with the health of many millions of people who without an at home heavy metal testing kit, would be still unaware as to the heavy metal poisoning that alters their life everyday.
Your body is made of water, and if you are exposed to heavy metals and environmental toxins, the waters of your body will also be poisoned. Thankfully science has given us the tools to detect and remove most toxic metals. What form of heavy metals are present can be detected by a simple colourmetric system. Via urine, saliva and perspiration, your body will naturally eliminate small proportions of poison stored within the body (as part of the body's natural elimination process). Heavy metal at home testing is an accurate way of determining what toxicity is present.
The most common way of testing if heavy metals are present in your body's water is to test your urine. Heavy metals that may be in your urine are not visible to the naked eye; they are in minute particles. Using a chemical called ‘dithazone’ we can ‘paint’ these heavy metals with a colour making the metal poisoning visible. The dithazone reacts differently to each metal, so for Mercury you will always get a yellow colour and for Copper a brown colour. This test is an accurate way to measure your body’s chelating ability.
What other testing mediums are available?
The difference between the Heavy Metal Test Kit and other methods for detecting heavy metals (Atomic Absorption Spectro Photometry etc.) is that this kit will exclusively detect ionic and free radical generating heavy metals.
This means that a needed element such as Zinc will not be detected with the test kits but ionic Zinc that produces free radicals will be. We know that a change in colour of the green test solution indicates the presence of ionic metals. Any product that is able to 'chelate' (neutralise) ionic metals must be able to maintain a green colour once the chelate is added to the sample containing the contaminate.

Who Developed the Science?
In 1925 Helmut Fischer of the Siemens Concern in Berlin succeeded in detecting heavy metal ions by means of a dithizone process. As a reagent, dithizone is able to indicate the presence of heavy metal ions in qualitative and quantitative terms. Dithizone, in binding the metals (binds to Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg, Pb, Mn, Co, Ni,), form coloured complexes in the interior of the molecule which are soluble in non-polar organic solvents.
The coloration of these solutions is very intense, its particular coloration determined by the atomic radius of the respective metal present in the complex. The reaction times of the heavy metal ions vary; therefore, depending on their respective concentrations, different colorations may occur from which one can, in addition to the qualitative conclusions also semi quantitative ones regarding the contaminant. (At the lower ppm level, even at the ppb level).
The solvent used Diphenylthiocarbazone (Dithizone) is especially developed to bind the dithizone molecules quickly and effectively to ensure dissolution for testing.
What can I test using this kit?
Urine, Saliva, Perspiration and even a blood sample may be tested for heavy metal poisoning using the same procedure.The Heavy Metal Test Kit can also be used to determine the environmental sources of the contamination in aqueous solutions such as tap water. Since all Heavy Metal ions are water soluble, solids like food items, porcelain dishes, dust samples from carpets, wall paints and wall paper etc. can be tested for Heavy Metals after soaking them in distilled water.
In addition to being an initial analytical screening tool for Urine, Saliva, Perspiration and Blood the test is also useful for finding the causes of contamination in the patient's environment.
How to test a sample
Using a sample cup, the test subject is to provide a quarter to half cup of urine sample for testing. The sample can be taken at any time of the day. Prior to each test, please ensure that the sample cup is clean and free of any water or liquid. Cleaning with a clean tissue is recommended.
Testing Protocol
|
1. |
Take a fresh coated test tube, remove the cap, and using a dedicated pipette, add approximately 0.5 ml (~ 12 drops) of Solvent to the test tube. |
|
2. |
Replace the cap and shake the test tube vigorously for about 30 seconds to effect dissolution of Dithizone in the solvent. Invert the test tube and let it stand using the cap as the base for another 30 seconds. The solution should now be green and fresh and ready for use. |
|
3. |
Remove the test tube cap, pick up approximately 2-3mL of testing sample from the sample cup using a clean pipette and add it to the test tube. Replace the test tube cap. |
|
4. |
Shake vigorously for about 5 seconds, then place the test tube into one of the support holes in the stand provided and allow for the solution to separate. |
|
5. |
Read the top layer and compare it with the chart provided. If colour stays green, no ionic metals. |
The following are general notes that may assist in the reading:
- You may not find exactly the same colours as the chart in every day reality. This is due to the complexity of Urine and the reaction to dithizone.
- Sometimes, not only the 'ring' on top of the liquid changes colour, but also the entire solution (urine) below the ring may change colour as well.
- Ionic heavy metals can be 'lodged' in tissues and will be difficult to eliminate. In some cases, these heavy metals can only be dislodged if similar organically bounding material is available. It is essential therefore that a person undergoing elimination of the heavy metals from their tissues uses a good organic mineral.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Why is the Heavy Metal Test Kit important?
The Heavy Metal Test Kit is the only test available in the commercial market that allows for a quick test of the presence of ionic metals in our body. The normal atomic absorption method available in laboratories only shows the presence of metals, indiscriminately whether they are ionic or not, organic or inorganic. The body will normally handle, i.e. remove if not used by the body, use if required by our body, heavy metals if they are in their organic balanced state. Hence, the measurement of ionic metals is very important, not just to detect the presence of metals but also as a check on our body’s chelating ability.
Q2. What does the Heavy Metal Test Kit measure?
Heavy Metal Test Kit measures our “body’s chelating ability” as it shows the ionic metals present in our body through our urine. The colour indicates the kind of metals that are in ionic form indicating the presence of metal compounds which are not removed (chelated) from our body. As we chelate, the test shows the clearing of ionic heavy metals which allows us to continuously monitor.
Q3. What do the colours represent?
The colours represent the presence of ionic metals within the sample. If the body has good chelating ability, the sample will remain green. The presence of other ionic metals will produce different colours which within the sample may become mixed and non-distinct; however any change of colour shows ionic metals are present.
Lead testing for example comes up with a deepness in colour that you wonder why it is you cannot see it. And that is the very dangerous and insidious problem to metal poisoning. You cannot see it making the Heavy Metal Test Kit a most valuable diagnostic home-based health tool.
