I really mean it, though. It does seem to be the other way round than what's claimed, and I really don't know what to do with it.
Nobility used to have the highest lead levels, while violent tribes used to have the lowest. How do you explain that?
Tobacco smoke contains heavy metals, smoking rises lead levels. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/322790056_Blood_Lea... 11 out of the 76 short term exposed workers had myopia, while 10 out of 124 long term…

I don't think I broke any rules, and my comments are on topic. Anyway, why do you fight so hard? You would get cured too.

Lead deficiency makes people asocial, which is why we've seen the downturn of western industries. That was my point.

It's a lie. The effects are always beneficial except in extreme doses. No dose that makes no difference is exactly what you would expect from a nutrient. Lead activates the proteins it supoosedly poisons:…
The fact that it has always been there casts a great doubt on the claims about its toxicity. It can be found through the ages in human remains and in geological remains that clearly predate people.
Yes, they never get to the stage when you talk nonsense when they drink alcohol. (they can't readily tell, it seems, they need to test you in some way) I'm saying that the majority is now psychopaths. I'm still more…
The levels have been recently lowered, IIRC.
This is the exact problem with modern science. Yes, you really should go and look back at that horn and thoroughly recheck if it really is what it seemed like to people several decades ago.
