Atex Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 If anyone is following the recent end of 2023 news about lead contamination in cinnamon that was discovered in kids fruit pouches, it led me down a rabbit hole of looking into heavy metal contamination of spices. Who knew that certain producers add lead to spices to increase their weight. That said, I found an interesting article about a family who dealt with lead contamination from paint in which the kids were diagnosed with Tourette's Mom with lead-poisoned children says Flint crisis 'hits close to home' - mlive.com This begs the question why wouldn't a neurologist run blood tests for this out of normal practice? Our neurologist didn't even consider blood testing for heavy metals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 Atex, sadly conventional doctors just don't run the kinds of tests that would give so much more insight! We were so thankful to find an Integrative physician who had all the qualifications as an MD, but with the extra benefit of holistic certification too. Heavy metal testing was one of the first done-whereas the diagnosing neurologist we had initially seen only unleashed a nightmare of haldol on my son!
