Heavy Metals

On a daily basis, the average person around the world is subjected to doses of heavy metals from a variety of sources. One of the most insidious sources of routes of exposure is through the food supply. The World Health Organization contends that food may be the source of the largest contribution to the intake of heavy metals (especially lead). Many foods may naturally contain heavy metal compounds, from either natural biochemical processes or from bio accumulation from the environment. Other foods and beverages become contaminated by natural, agricultural or industrial sources of heavy metals. Finally, there are food and beverage products which are intentionally adulterated or counterfeited with materials containing heavy metals.
