Environmental Toxins

Find out if your body is polluted

Excessive Toxin Exposure -May Reveal Health Risks

We are exposed to a cocktail of chemicals sourcing from the personal care products that we use daily,

processed food that we are eating and also the air or exhaust gas that we breath.

These toxins have the potential to affect human health in a most insidious way from low level,

long term exposure through our diet, inhalation and using personal care products.

Researches have pointed out that exposure to environmental pollutants links to the development of serious diseases like cancers and errors of metabolism.

Where Do Toxins Come From?

Are those symptoms the sign of the toxin accumulation?

Fatigue, Depression, Anxiety, Excitatory effect, Dizziness, Drowsiness, Impaired balance, Difficult concentration, Insomnia, Anorexia

Researches showed that long-term exposure to environment pollutant may causing serious diseases., including nervous system problems, anaemia and cancer, therefore, there are more people concerning about the health risks caused by chronic exposure to toxins

Let’s do a quick test to see if you are

affected by the environmental pollutants!

Why using the urine testing?

A first morning urine sample on our signature Air-dried strips is required to profile the organic acid levels. Liquid urine has poor stability, as degraded after sampling, and the freeze-thaw cycle between transportation may discourage the quality of urine sample. Air-dried strips ensure sample stability in storage and transportation even in room temperature condition up to 55 days.

 

Our Air-dried Strips was validated to provide almost 100% of the liquid urine value (r² of 0.997), with great stability and recovery of the analytes.

HK BioTek Technology Competence

•    Sample will be sent to our laboratories in the United States for analysis employing the advance approach: Liquid Chromatography/ Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry platform (LC/QQQ).

•    This method measures chemical markers even at low level for optimum test results.

•    One repeated testing will be done for each sample in order to achieve the highest accuracy.

User Testimonials

Useful Data for My Practice

Functional Medicine Practitioner, Central, Hong Kong

“The test quantifies exposure to aromatic solvents, parabens and phthalates. Many of my patients found it very convenient to collect the urine sample with the sampling strips from HK BioTek. The result provides the most useful data for detox program for my patients.”

Examine the Efficiency of Bodily Functions

Nutritionist M, Hong Kong

“The report comes with a comprehensive review of the data, potential sources of exposure and detailed detoxification protocols for each of the pollutants and for any metabolic blockades found. It is a very good tool for practitioners to know more about our patients from the biochemical perspective.”

Reveal How My Body is ‘Polluted’

Ms Yang, Shenzhen, China

“I did this test with the Urinary Metabolic Profile. I spend most of my time in China and I do have concerns how my body is ‘polluted’ by the environment, and want to do something before it is too late. Plus I am struggling with my weight and digestive system. So I want to see if there is any underlying cause for these problem. After the test and followed the instruction on the report to detox and supplement what is lacking, the symptoms improve a lot.”  

An Absolute Must for Better Body

Dr. Mark Schauss, USA

“Environmental pollutants testing is an absolute must if you want to achieve the best body composition and lose fat. This first morning urine test, using dry strip technology is easy to do.”

Frequently-Asked Questions

1. What are the strengths of HK BioTek EPP test? 

•    8 keys environment toxins tested
•    Easy and convenient sampling for higher stability
•    Technology from USA
•    LabAssistTM Interpretative guide goes along with the report

2. How accurate is urine as an indicator of my body status of toxicity?

Exposure occurs when a chemical comes in contact with a person. A portion of that exposure dose is absorbed into the body, where it’s distributed, metabolized and excreted in the urine. Environmental exposures to these toxins (parent compounds) result in increases in body burden that are reflected in urine, which is an accurate biomarker of exposure. Urine analysis is also a standard method of measuring chemical exposure as it is the medium which carries the various waste products that are filtered out of the blood system. Benzene exposure for example, is measured through urinary trans-muconic acid.

3. Could we know more about the specificity and accuracy of the test?

Our test undergoes stringent biochemical process detect metabolic intermediates in your urine, which interprets your body’s efficiency in dealing with the toxins. Our test gives you the assurance of quality and reliability as all tests are completed under US BioTek Laboratories’ facilities. Our laboratory is an independent clinical laboratory approved by CLIA (US Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments) accredited by COLA (US Commission on Office Laboratory Accreditation). The laboratory is also licensed by the State of Washington for performing testing worldwide.
