    As an artist, I can understand why a wholesale ban on cadmium red would make people mad. Heavy metals do make the prettiest colors, and unlike lead, just existing in the house with a cad red painting isn't going to hurt you. That said, I'm shocked that this is allowed in foodware. Literally all pigments I have access to are categorized into food-safe and not-food-safe, and cadmium red is on the not list, and not just in the state of California.

      Because it wasn't as profitable for them if they did due diligence and properly/fully safety test their products. Or to use a more expensive material to get the same result but be much safer for use. That's a lot of "wasted" money spent on making sure they don't poison millions of people that instead could have been "saved" to generate value for shareholders.

    I have a friend in Japan with some of these symptoms, and she has always had a lousy diet and poor nutrition. She didn't start taking multivitamins until this year, and is anemic. She frequently complains about back and body pain, fatigue, coughing and vomiting blood, etc, and her mom died after she was born, and her dad has chronic kidney disease. I know you said they replaced the soil in 2012, but that was merely a decade ago. Heavy metal and toxin build up for Japanese women that typically are 40-50kg is something to think about. Even if she doesn't have the itai itai disease, it's worth it to talk to her about taking spirulina or something to help rid of those toxic metals anyway
