30-day timeline
Toxins
Commonly found in old paint dust, aging pipes, and contaminated soil, lead is one of the more widely studied environmental elements. It is worth monitoring over time, particularly for families with young children, given research pointing to links with development and behavior.
Found in tobacco smoke and some leafy vegetables grown in contaminated soil, cadmium is an element where long-term patterns tell the most meaningful story. Research has pointed to links with kidney function and bone density, so tracking patterns over time gives you a more informed picture.
Nickel turns up in more places than most people realize: stainless steel cookware, jewelry, and everyday foods including nuts and chocolate. Research has linked higher contact levels to skin sensitivity, and some studies in people with heavy occupational exposure have pointed to effects on the lungs.
Naturally occurring in some well water, rice, and materials used in older building treatments, arsenic is an element where context matters. Research has noted associations with skin, lung, and heart health in studies of long-term exposure, so understanding how your levels sit over time is genuinely useful.
Barium is present in some groundwater, everyday foods including nuts and grains, and certain medical imaging products. Research has pointed to links with heart rhythm and blood pressure at elevated levels, so knowing where you sit relative to others gives you a useful starting point.
One of the most widely encountered metals in daily life, aluminum is present in cookware, antiperspirants, and some antacids. Research has noted associations with bone health and brain function at elevated levels, and knowing where you sit relative to others adds a useful layer to your overall exposure picture.
Essentials
Found naturally in nuts, seeds, and leafy greens, and present in some laxatives and antacids, magnesium is one of the body's most important minerals, supporting muscle function, energy, and sleep quality. Your timeline shows whether levels have stayed consistent across the testing window.
Present in grains, tea, and some urban air from industrial sources, manganese is a mineral the body needs in the right amounts to work well. Your results give you a clearer sense of whether intake has stayed within a healthy range over the 30 days.
Found in shellfish, nuts, and drinking water from copper pipes, copper is a mineral the body depends on for energy, immunity, and everyday cell repair. Your timeline helps identify whether levels have shifted with changes in diet or water source across the testing window.
Found in meat, legumes, sunscreens, and some cold remedies, zinc plays a central role in immunity and how the body's cells function day to day. Your results show how patterns shifted over the 30 days.
Closely linked to Vitamin B12 and found in everyday foods including meat, dairy, and eggs, cobalt is a trace element the body needs in small amounts to support healthy red blood cells. Your timeline shows whether levels have stayed consistent and gives you a clearer picture of your intake over time.
Found in protein-rich foods and added to some processed drinks as a preservative, phosphorus is an essential mineral involved in bone health and energy. Research has pointed to links between excessive intake over time and kidney function, making it worth keeping an eye on alongside your other results.
Found in dairy products, leafy greens, and some supplements and antacids, calcium is the body's most abundant mineral and central to bone strength and muscle function. Research has pointed to links between high intake over time and kidney stones, so your timeline gives you a useful picture of how patterns may have shifted.
Other Elements
Naturally occurring in some drinking water and also used as a medication for mood regulation, lithium is worth paying attention to over time. Research has pointed to links between high or prolonged exposure and how the kidneys and nervous system function, so your results give you a useful personal reference point.
Found in soil, seafood, and some fortified foods and toothpastes, strontium is a naturally occurring element most people come across through their everyday diet. At the levels typically found in food and environmental sources, it is not generally linked to adverse effects.
