Arsenic in drinking water also damages hearts and minds
of young adults
Says I, and this study.
Arsenic is present in this food; it is also present in water.
Some young adults who never had any diabetes or cardiovascular disease developed heart damage in five years from exposure to arsenic commonly found in ground water.
This information is based upon research from a Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, an American Heart Association Journal.
“Low-level arsenic exposure is associated with a disproportionate growth of the heart independent of hypertension and other traditional risk factors,” the study’s lead author, Dr. Gernot Pichler, wrote in an email.
“The higher the arsenic content in drinking water, the greater the damage to the heart,” said Pichler, who is a medical specialist at Hospital Hietzing/Heart Center Clinic Floridsdorf in Vienna, Austria.
Over a long period of time – if you are exposed to inorganic arsenic (this is a human poison which is naturally present in our mother Earth’s crust) – you can receive various cancers, your kidneys will get damaged, hypertension will visit you, you’ll receive the awful ailment of cardiovascular disease and the dreaded diabetes.
A map of Arizona shows over 65% of the area has high arsenic levels in our water (the area of Phoenix metro is included).
If you are concerned to have arsenic in your water – have it tested immediately.
Here is a water testing company that can help you (ask for Barb):
Is cardiovascular disease bad?
It is the leading cause of death in adults exposed to arsenic in their drinking water.
If you treat your water your arsenic exposure will be reduced and even eliminated. By treating your water (let’s get that arsenic out of your water) this potential health impact will be extreme.
What about the impact of drinking arsenic water to pregnant women?
There is evidence in-utero arsenic exposure – this can have a long lasting negative impact.
What in the heck is this mineral called arsenic?
It occurs in rocks and soil. This element serves many industrial and agricultural purposes. Because of copper smelting, mining and coal burning its presence becomes prevalent. If we mix arsenic with other chemicals this will preserve wood and kill bugs and pests on agricultural crops including cotton. If you mix it in a drink you will have an arsenic cocktail (we do not recommend this).
How does arsenic enter the water supply?
From a natural deposit or industrial and agriculture run off. There are many industries that pollute thousands of gallons of arsenic into our environment annually. When arsenic is here – it is for a long time. The first place it goes is into our water.
What form of water treatment can remove arsenic?
reverse osmosis, ultra-filtration, distillation, or ion exchange.
If you find yourself consuming large amounts of arsenic – you will die rapidly. If you reluctantly consume smaller amounts of arsenic ‘over many years’; this can cause you to be very sick and eventually depart this life. The majority of people who have arsenic poisoning attract it by drinking water with a lot of this toxin.
