Heavy metal analysis is the process of measuring the concentration of toxic metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic in the body. Exposure to heavy metals can occur through environmental sources, contaminated food, or occupational hazards and can lead to various health issues including neurological, renal, and cardiovascular problems. This analysis is typically conducted through blood, urine, or hair samples to determine exposure levels and guide treatment. Identifying and managing heavy metal toxicity is crucial for preventing long-term health effects and implementing detoxification strategies.
