Why Lead and Aluminum Levels Should Be Tested.
In recent years, heavy metals have been linked to behavioral disorders in children. Here’s what you should know about these problematic heavy metals and why you should get tested:
Lead
Lead is a toxic, heavy metal, used mainly in the weapon industry. It is the traditional core material of a bullet. It is an environmental toxin, which according to research may have serious, harmful health implications on children’s nerve system. Exposure to lead, even if moderate, is associated with a higher risk of developing ADHD. Exposure to lead may occur due to inhaling polluted air, accidentally swallowing a toy, using cheap lipsticks, drinking polluted water and working with paint and adhesives. Long term exposure to Lead may result in Lead poisoning. Lead in one of several neuro-toxic chemicals that may poorly affect brain development and can eventually contribute to psychiatric disorders, like ADHD. Its potential effect on children’s mental health, IQ and development has been evident in research. Lead poisoning can have a negative impact on neuro-cognitive functioning, lead to physical and mental development abnormalities in children and potentially worsen preexisting symptoms of autism. Therefore, this has been a cause of concern among scientists for decades.
Aluminum
Aluminum is a relatively common, silver colored metal. It is considered to be the most common metal in nature, and the 3rd most common in the earth’s crust. It is broadly used worldwide in many industries and products due to its robust qualities. These include aviation industry, motor and railway industry, glass products, deodorants, computers and electronic devices and more. Aluminum has been causing major concern among scientists. Some research has found high levels of aluminum in the brain tissues of individuals with ASD, a fact which raises many questions. It is also associated with declining cognitive performance, as well as other health implications.
This test will give you a clearer picture about your child’s health and potential risk factors they are exposed to. The purpose of this test is to detect possible underlying causes for behavioral abnormalities and help you take appropriate measures.

Sources of Heavy Metal Toxicity
Here’s what you’ll learn when you get a Hair Mineral Analysis test
- Which heavy metals you body have
- You’ll see your mineral deficiencies and which minerals you need (or don’t need) to supplement.
- You’ll see your mineral toxicities
- You’ll discover which minerals and nutrients are out of balance
