I am slowly learning of the toxicity that is ever present in our foods, soaps, water, etc. Something I’ve discovered is the existence of heavy metals in most products and their harmful effects. My question is, why are they even there. I mean, just a few years ago it was discovered that most baby food contained toxic heavy metals….
In: Chemistry
Heavy metals are everywhere so it’s only fitting that they are on food as well. The presence of toxic elements is not a problem per se. Your house contains extremely toxic molecules such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide but that’s not an issue unless their quantity gets out of hand. Conversely, “healthy” molecules like vitamines are only healthy if don’t ingest too much.
