More need for detox products
Not only are there talks in the Senate about drug testing recipients who receive Federal Benefits. Now there are laboratories resetting there ng/ml (nanograms per ml) when it comes to urine testing. By adjusting cut off levels in urine tests these companies/labs are looking deeper into urine to see when drugs may have been used the normal standard would show the metabolites in the urine for typical use of toxins.
Now with standards changing labs are able to detect prescription medications and decipher between opiates, amphetamines, narcotics etc. So with the rise of labs looking into and changing standards the more will show in your urine. If you did not know the higher the nanogram level when tested is the most you are showing during a test. For example normal cut off levels are 300ng/mL for typical prescribed medications.
Laboratories are trying to change the cut offs to 2000 ng/mL. This means if you took non-prescribed medications 6 days prior to your test you would normally be lower then the normal 300 ng/mL cut off meaning you would pass. With the proposed and already attempted 2000 ng/mL cut off it can show the prescriptions more then a week back. This is based off of a person who metabolizes things on a regular basis and there system processes the toxin and expels it in a normal fashion.
So now do you see the need for detox products?
