Heavy Metal Toxicity
From fatigue and brain fog to hormone imbalance and chronic illness, toxic burden may be playing a larger role than you realize. We use advanced testing and targeted therapies to identify and support safe detoxification.
It’s Not Just Lead and Mercury
When people think of heavy metals, they often think of one or two exposures.
In reality, your body may be dealing with a cumulative burden of multiple metals over time.
You may be experiencing:
- Brain fog or memory issues
- Chronic fatigue
- Headaches
- Hormone imbalance
- Immune dysfunction
- Neurological symptoms
- Unexplained or persistent health concerns
Toxic exposure doesn’t always show up clearly—but it can significantly impact how your body functions.
A Different Way to Approach to Toxic Burden
At Prospectively Healthy, we don’t assume—we test.
Our naturopathic approach focuses on:
- identifying hidden contributors to illness
- supporting the body’s natural detox pathways
- using safe, guided strategies for elimination
We follow the principles of naturopathic medicine:
- treat the cause
- support the body’s ability to heal
- minimize unnecessary harm
- use the least invasive, most effective approach first
Looking Beyond the Obvious
We utilize advanced testing methods, including provoked urine testing, to evaluate how your body is handling and eliminating metals.
One commonly used approach is a post-provocation urine sample, which helps identify stored toxic burden—not just what is circulating at the moment.
What We Look For
This type of testing evaluates a broad spectrum of metals, not just the commonly discussed ones.
Depending on the panel, this may include up to 20+ heavy metals, such as:
- Lead
- Mercury
- Arsenic
- Cadmium
- Aluminum
- Nickel
- Antimony
- Tin
- Thallium
- Uranium
- And additional trace and toxic elements
This allows us to assess total toxic load, rather than focusing on a single exposure.

A Step by Step Approach- We don’t just jump straight into aggressive detox. Your plan is layered and guided.
FOUNDATION: Supporting Detox Pathways
Before removing toxins, we support the systems responsible for detoxification:
- Liver function
- Kidney function
- Gut health
- Nutrient status
- Hydration
This step is essential for safe and effective detoxification.
TARGETED SUPPORT
-
Once the body is prepared, we may incorporate:
- Nutrient support
- Antioxidant support
- Binding agents (when appropriate)
- Lifestyle strategies to reduce ongoing exposure
ADVANCED INTERVENTIONS (WHEN APPROPRIATE)
Chelation & IV Therapy
When clinically appropriate, we may utilize:
- Chelation therapy to bind and support removal of metals
- IV therapy to support detox pathways, antioxidant capacity, and recovery
These therapies are:
- guided by testing
- monitored carefully
- tailored to your individual needs

A Collaborative Approach
Supporting Complex Cases
In certain situations, detoxification and chronic illness overlap with other systems.
Your care may include collaboration with other providers to ensure comprehensive support.
This may involve:
- additional diagnostics
- coordinated care strategies
- or prescription-based support when appropriate
Our goal is always:
👉 to support your body safely
👉 to reduce burden—not add to it
👉 and to use the right level of care at the right time
This approach may be right for you if you:
- Suspect toxic exposure
- Have chronic, unexplained symptoms
- Experience fatigue, brain fog, or neurological symptoms
- Have not improved with other approaches
- Want a deeper understanding of your overall toxic burden
Many detox approaches are:
- overly aggressive
- poorly guided
- or not based on testing
We focus on:
- data-driven decisions
- safe, step-by-step detoxification
- supporting your body throughout the process
Because detox should never make you feel worse—it should help you recover.
