What heavy metals does MetalAI detect?
MetalAI analyzes four FDA-recognized heavy metals: lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium. It provides a total metal score in ppb and individual metal levels, comparing them against FDA and EU limits.
How accurate is MetalAI's scanning?
MetalAI uses computer vision and a proprietary database of over 16 million data points, including lab results, FDA recalls, and manufacturer disclosures, to provide informational estimates. It's important to note that MetalAI provides estimates, not medical advice.
Can I use MetalAI without an internet connection?
