Leaded gasoline was used from the 1940s until early 80s. Baby Boomers grew up during that era of high lead pollution. It is no coincidence that criminality peaked in the 70s/80s and has been declining since.

I do believe that there is a such thing as lead poisoning..... That being said, that is not the reason why the government wanted lead off your walls!,... The lead paint on your walls is basically harmless as long as you don't let your children chew on the lead chips which that comes down to parenting.,.... The government wants lead off your walls because the government's technology cannot penetrate through lead and spying on your phone and using lasers that vibrate off your windows to listen to your voices is hindered by lead. FBI and drug enforcement agents can use their equipment to look at your walls and see your infrared body heat walking around your house. They can tell how many people are in your home. But with lead on your walls that technology does not work. It is very tyrannical and wicked. The real reason why the government doesn't want the lead on your walls.,... A friend of mine had real lead bullets and saved those bullets and put them up on the walls of his living room. His whole room was filled with lead bullets. The next thing he knew,... There were men in black coats, black jackets, black shoes, sunglasses knocking on his door and asking him. Does he have lead on his wall?!!!,.. He's never been asked that in 40 years all of a sudden they're asking that question? Because obviously they were spying on him and they could not see through the one room! It's dangerous out there in the government people. Watch out because they're spying on you through your phone through your home at stores. Walking down the sidewalk, walking thru outlets, grocery stores. You're being surveilled all the time. And the one place you always had was your home. And now your home is not safe anymore. Don't tread on me! That should be your slogan! I'm trying to find lead paint from other countries that still sell it to the black market and I put it back on my walls!

levsole is a super strong iron chelator as I guessed. However like deferasirox, because it binds it so strongly it can impair kidney function depending on energy/iron. Noticed low urine production, and dangerously low metabolism. So only going to use doses low enough that don't. Anyway if that didn't knock out the ncc then nothing will.

Great explaination! But frankly, you shouldn't look that happy when talking about developmental neurotoxins. This is a sad topic for the kids who have lost their IQ silently.

We deserve freeheath care from being poisoned.

Is BDNF supplementation available?
Of so, is it safe? (Would it dial down endogenous production?)

There is a fascinating theory that the sharp rise in violent street crime in the 20th century was the result of behavioral changes caused by leaded gasoline (taking into account a 20-year lag for the effects to work). Crime rates worldwide started to drop about 25 years after leaded gasoline was phased out.

Testing to find the lead paint is fast and easy, and thousands and thousands of consultants are available to do it quicky and at a low cost. My lead video to show how fast and easy the testing is CrGk5PoUCPw

I was always the slowest in my class academically due to lead poisoning, which followed me into employment. It's been a nightmare!

I could just break down and cry after hearing this information. I'm 66 and was exposed to lead paint getting all over both legs when I was in elementary school.

The body mistakes lead for zinc and delivers it to the brain not calcium .
Zinc. But because lead is similar to zinc I'm molecular structure , the brain attempts to use it and the lead molicule is a few electrons larger , it gets stuck as it tries to transfer during thought.
Basically preventing the process of thought. Crazy takes over .
Lead has been used as a chemical weapon in recent past warfare.
how come there is lead in fuel then, and we use sodder in electronics?
@magnuswootton6181Lead causes criminal activity. There has been a huge reduction in crime since unleaded gas became widely available.
@dbb666Like each individuals cell phone if they would all stop freaking out about it and let our cellphones work.
@privatedeletebuttongooglei5221That explains the lady in the movie Patriot, where she mistook the sabotage of a ship for fireworks...
She's already lost her marbles at the point, as the actress depicted her as a shaking, addled victim of Georgian fashion, which claimed the lives of many upperclass women.
Im a 50 yr old male , my doctor checked my BLL because he had suck a hard time getting my blood pressure under control ..... My BLL is 56.9 .,anything above .5 is considered toxic . My mind has turned to crap my memory is horrifiy . Im starting chelation therapy today , hopefully it helps
@bryanjones14Youtube has blocked this video in the high school computers on student terminals for being inappropriate! I don't know why. Is it the name "gross?"
@AwilJama-d5pThis sociopath loves talking about brain damage. Yikes

@ilsealvarez95I'm here after watching the video of the man who deliberately poisoned his wife with lead
@yujibellGet Chelation therapy, it claws the lead out of your system through your urine.
First they test your blood
Then they give you a IV Drip bag filled with calcium, then for the next 6 hours you drink a lot of water and you pee into a bag they give you.
After 6 hours you shake the bag up and pour it into a plastic tube and tighten the cap.
Fed Ex picks up and send it to a Lab, it’s takes about 5-7 days to get the results.
The results show the amount of heavy metals in your body.
I had only one high metal, that was lead.
I just started my chelation therapy today.
Consisting of an IV drip, it takes me 20 mins and I went to work no side affects.
You drink a lot of water, because that’s how you flush it out of your body.
I’ll go once a week for 10 weeks, then I’ll retest to see how much has reduced in my blood.
Heavy metals are Lead, Aluminum, Mercury Palladium etc.
chelation therapy reduces All toxic metals from your body.
I highly recommend it
10 sessions cost me $1500; insurance does not cover it
Fisherman use a lot of lead.
@krisztiankovacs6377My grandfather worked for dutch boy lead paint. He died suddenly in his 40s
@TappedInATriangleIs it true that due to massive usage of leaded fuel among other applications of lead, have contaminated the planet thus lowering the IQ of the average human?
@RFH_GLPBOne penny worth of lead can damage quarter million kids. That's by weight the amount of lead equal in weight to a ⁴penny
@comodice905Updates?
@squartbotai1383I live in a house built in 1942 and paint, and repainted for years while lead was still widely used. Most of the houses in my city were built between 1880-1980, with a much smaller number being built within the last 40 years. Newer houses are built in the more rural areas. Dealing with those houses is a HUGE issue and most see it as a risk they don't want to take. So, they just abandon the house and move away, leaving tens of thousands of homes empty. For the houses, like mine, that people want to take care of, I have to constantly think about the fact that the last time I went through my house with a lead test kit, lead is EVERYWHERE. Paint chips on my bathroom sealing. The woman at the paint store said to just sand it down and repaint. Uh, I don't think so. I ended up putting a thin piece of wallboard over it. But, I am still trying to figure out what to do about other areas of the house. Anything from hanging a picture to opening a window have the potential to cause lead exposure. Very sad.
@garypickNo mention of lead being in Van Gough's yellow chrome paint that he frequently ate? Already having mental health issues, driving him further into madness thus cutting his ear of & delivering it in a box to a brothel & passing out due to bloodloss?
@MeximidgeComedyAre there any stories on Gillman Colorado? Seems like there must be some interesting stories there. Thank You for your info about lead poisoning.
@angelabasurto5379This is some f-ing, darkly disturbing but frankly interesting stuff.😳👍🏻
