Description

PFAS Chemical Urine Test

The PFAS Chemical Test monitors exposure to perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl chemicals, commonly called ‘PFAS.’ PFAS are used to make fluoropolymer coatings and products that resist heat, oil, stains, grease, and water. PFAS are found in the air, soil, and water, and in everyday consumer goods.

Why this test is important

  • Exposure to PFAS is constant in modern society. PFAS bioaccumulation (build up) can increase the risk of long-term harms.
  • Toxins can bioaccumulate and persist in the body for decades, breaking down slowly or not at all. Toxic build-up can impair detoxification, compromise immunity, and increase oxidative stress.
  • Testing for PFAS can reveal the status of toxic metabolites in the body.
  • The PFAS Chemical Test will aid in identifying toxicity from environmental sources.
  • Knowing your PFAS exposure level is the first step to reducing toxic risk and creating a personalized detox and wellness plan to achieve better health.
