Manage episode 483150537 series 2494095
Do you live in an older home or love purchasing cookware from thrift stores? You could be exposed to the heavy metal lead which can increase ADHD and lower IQ. It can also elevate blood pressure and even lead to more serious effects like heart attacks. Eric Ritter created an affordable at-home test called Fluoro-Spec that allows you to become a lead detective and nail down the source in your home.
In this interview he shares the history of lead, how social media influencers can easily sensationalize the numbers, how to view parts per billion amounts of lead in food products in proper context, how shooting ranges expose you to lead, which mineral the body mistakes for lead, his thoughts on lead content in salts, which foods have the highest lead content, what to look out for when renovating a home, his thoughts on if we should go back to using lead paint to shield from EMFs, and a whole lot more.
