Discover your exposure to common environmental chemicals with this at-home advanced urine toxicity test. TOXDetect measures 27 biomarkers linked to pesticides, glyphosate, plastics, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), parabens and other environmental toxicants to help identify hidden chemical exposures and support more personalised detoxification strategies.
Includes:
£435.00
Every day we’re exposed to hundreds of environmental chemicals through the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe and the products we use. While many are eliminated naturally, ongoing exposure may place additional demands on the body’s detoxification systems.
TOXDetect measures 27 urinary biomarkers associated with some of the most common environmental toxicants, including pesticides, glyphosate, plastics, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), parabens and bisphenols. Rather than estimating exposure, it identifies metabolites produced as your body processes these chemicals, providing a clearer picture of your recent toxic burden.
The results can help identify potential environmental exposures, support personalised detoxification strategies and guide informed decisions around nutrition, lifestyle and reducing future chemical exposure.
Adults experiencing:

You’ll be invited to join our online portal, Practice Better, where you can receive secure communication from us. Once your results are in we’ll share them with you via the portal where you can view and download them. You may also book an optional consultation with a qualified practitioner at this stage.
Your safety is our priority, and tests including biomarkers which require clinical review, are only available with interpretation from a certified practitioner.
See our Privacy Policy for information about how your data will be processed by The Forbes Clinic and our third party testing suppliers.
Turnaround times vary depending on the test. We aim to process and submit your order to our provider within 2 working days. Test kits are promptly dispatched, and most samples can be collected and returned as soon as you're ready. Some tests may have specific requirements, such as timing around menstruation or return days. These details can be found under "How do I prepare for the test?" and in your kit. Estimated turnaround times refer to how long it takes to analyse your sample once it’s received at the laboratory.
All at-home test kits include clear instructions for sample collection and return, along with necessary packaging. Some tests require you to return the sample on specific days or immediately after collection. Most kits include pre-paid return labels, but some may require you to arrange a prepaid courier collection. Review the instructions carefully before collecting your sample and refer to the contact details in your kit for any questions.
Your kit will come with full instructions and some include video guides. We can support with queries and we encourage you to contact us using the link below before collecting your sample to ensure it can be effectively analysed.
We offer functional testing with and without practitioner interpretation. You can filter tests by consultation on the Functional Testing page. Certain tests, especially those involving clinically significant biomarkers, are only available with interpretation, and some require interpretation by an Integrative Medicine Doctor. We’ll ensure you’re seen by the right practitioner when your results are in. You can purchase a consultation later if you choose standalone testing, but we offer preferential rates for booking upfront.
We provide functional testing to help you make informed health decisions but do not offer medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Results are interpreted through a nutritional, lifestyle, and functional medicine perspective, and it is your responsibility to seek further evaluation, diagnosis or treatment from your primary healthcare provider.
Your digital results report will include indicators of how your specific results differ or align with ‘optimal’ ranges in functional medicine. Some reports include an element of written interpretation. If you’ve purchased a consultation we’ll explain your results and interpret them from a nutritional, lifestyle and functional medicine perspective. We may offer suggestions about how Integrative or Functional Medicine can help and can refer you for full consultation or Integrative Health Assessment with a relevant practitioner if desired. If your test includes a clinically significant biomarker and your result is abnormal, we’ll direct you to consult your primary healthcare provider. If you haven’t purchased a consultation and you’re concerned about your results, you’ll be able to opt-in at this stage.
All third party testing providers are GDPR compliant and adhere strictly to regulatory and industry standards for processing sensitive health data in line with their own Privacy Policies (available on the product page).
