We Need to do more than get the lead out

We Need To Do More Than Get The Lead Out


Why do companies such as Mattel and the ones listed below have to bring to the public`s attention that lead is dangerous, while The Center For Disease Control, The American Medical Association, The American Dental Association and The Food and Drug Administration do not. Where are the recalls for mercury? Where are the recalls for amalgam fillings? (silver fillings) Vaccines and silver fillings (amalgam) both are loaded with mercury, the second most toxic substance in the world. Even more toxic than lead. We have no problem injecting newborn babies with mercury, Yes, mercury is still in vaccines despite what the medical profession tells you. We also have no problem loading a young child`s mouth with silver fillings, which begin to leak over time causing an array of major health problems. We are also shipping mercury vaccines to other countries. Third world countries where the population is already very sickly. The toxins in the vaccines such as mercury just cause more harm and illness and even death to these already sickly populations. What if we sent over these recalled products to other countries and gave it to their children. There would be a huge outrage and the media would be all over it. However there is no problem sending mercury filled vaccines to other countries? No one seems to care. No one seems to care that we are poisoning our children every day with vaccines and silver fillings. The CDC and the FDA and the medical profession need to start taking responsibility for knowingly poisoning our children. It is essential that we do more than just get "the lead out" We need to get the mercury out!!

Lead Poisoning Symptoms{4}

Lead poisoning usually does not cause symptoms until the level of lead in your blood is very high. Most lead poisoning comes from low levels of exposure over a long period of time. The major organ systems affected are the central nervous system, gastrointestinal (digestive) tract, and the renal system (urinary tract).
Chronic lead exposure may cause the following symptoms.
General physical symptoms in children and adults (usually seen when lead poisoning levels are severe) Stomachaches, cramping, constipation, or diarrhea Nausea, vomiting Persistent, unexplained fatigue Headache Muscle weakness Higher rates of tooth decay Children with chronic low blood lead levels who may not have obvious symptoms of lead poisoning may have learning problems and be smaller in size than children their age who do not have low to moderate levels of lead poisoning.

A recent study showed that declines in IQ can even be seen in children with blood lead concentrations below 10 micrograms of lead per deciliter of blood (10 mcg/dL), the level of concern defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization.11

Chronic exposure to lead may also cause behavioral problems in these children. Behavioral symptoms in children Irritability or aggressiveness Hyperactivity, being easily distracted, impulsiveness Learning problems Lack of interest in play Loss of appetite Behavioral symptoms in adults Irritability Unexplained changes in mood or personality Changes in sleep patterns Inability to concentrate Memory loss Neurological symptoms (caused by effects of lead on the nervous system) Poor coordination Weakness in hands and feet Headaches Seizures Paralysis Coma Diagnosing lead poisoning can be difficult because many other conditions cause similar symptoms.
