Question
My daughter is now 3 weeks old. Last year, we had a mineral test done on her hair and found that the lead levels were elevated. Currently, she is taking eight boxes of Chinese date and jujube syrup. The lead levels did not decrease, and there was a slight increase in the previous two doses due to insufficient dosage. Should we continue with the treatment?
Answer
We can consume more foods rich in fiber, such as milk, barley, and corn, to reduce heavy metal content. Reducing and preventing the production and retention of toxic substances. Eating more tofu can help lower the concentration of lead in the human blood. Researchers are not yet sure how tofu reduces blood lead levels. However, they suspect that calcium ions in soy products may inhibit lead absorption. Strengthening protection against lead. High blood lead levels can lead to a decrease in intelligence, harm the development of the nervous system, affect growth and development, cause hearing abnormalities, and reduce learning ability.
