Mining companies have been doing surveys and drilling on our lands for 50 years now. We just found out our water is now contaminated with arsenic. Turns out clean water is less important than gold.
I enjoyed your presentation and thanks for your dedication in pursuing and sharing more knowledge about the toxic effects of arsenic. I cannot find a molecule that contains arsenic that does not easily release it back into water and, thus, back into the environment. Do you know of any? I'm working in the mining industry trying to "permanently" capture arsenic long-term. Any ideas?
What do you say that now that you know that Arsenic is in Roundup and Roundup causes NHL, I have that proof about Roundup , and I am only one who admits that ?
Ralph, good for you for mentioning Roundup! There is currently a class action in its initial stages, so if you have used Roundup and have been diagnosed with NHL, you may want to consider getting on board. Many years ago arsenic was commonly used to dust apple trees, cotton fields and much more. If you don't mind my asking, what form of NHL do you have and how are you doing? As far as "What do you say ...", well, I say there is a lot of arsenic in sedimentary and volcanic areas, contaminating wells, rivers and soils. I am working on an inexpensive way to get it out of the immediate environment that people share with it but I cannot find a suitable long-term storage form. It's simply too soluble and too easily released back into the environment in time. Any ideas? My background is chemistry, even divided between physical chemistry and organic chemistry and I feel the safety of people, especially children, comes first.
@@richardrobertson1331 well the best advice would be to leave the job available to someone who is willing to put the work in to find a solution. A person who takes credit for finding a solution when there is no solution as of yet is useless. When you say you're working on finding then proceed to ask what other people would do is a complete waste of time. Either go find the answer or give up and find an easier job that you actually can do.
@@anthonyrybczynski5420 why should a person doing research to decrease the incidence of cancer leave their "job"? And why is it wrong to ask others for help? I'm not taking a job away from someone else. I'm a retired medical researcher doing this at my own expense and on my own time. Researchers don't know everything and that's why we seek collaboration while looking for answers to tough questions. Cancer will not be cured by one person but by lots of people sharing their results and ideas with others and testing potentially new solutions. Not everyone is content working on an assembly line. With respect to arsenic, I have found an inexpensive way to remove it from drinking water and am now working on combining it "permanently" so it is no longer available to harm people or animals. So, do you think that pursuit is honorable and worthwhile, or do you think I should watch TV or play video games, instead?
@@richardrobertson1331 good luck to you. I hope you have success. I do not work on an assembly line I work in automotive in powertrain engineering for racing applications. When we modify a turbo or make a design change we discuss options, obstacles and other concerns. We have an effective team and I make some great contributions to our team. Maybe you need to run a test to choose candidates for a team for yourself. It is very hard to find the right people but one thing I know is that if you are on the right team they will stimulate ideas in your brain and between the lot you should find the answer you need. The key is having the right people that you will love like family and be driven beyond your normal mental performance capacity.
She said that as a child she'd a high interest in learning what stuff is made of. Me too....... I could nearly recite the ingredients of so many cereals, shampoos, paints, insecticides, etc. :) Things I've heard and/or read about arsenic, of which one or all could be incorrect: --- she mentioned bedrock; I'd read that granite specifically contains particularly high levels of arsenic. This would mean that people living in certain mountainous regions have a lifelong exposure to arsenic. The curiosity arose when I was visiting my cousins in Huntington, West Virginia. I'd traveled with one of them from upstate New York; we went through western Pennsylvania to pick up and follow the Ohio River south to Huntington. At roadside rest areas across western PA, the water from onsite water fountains had a very strong odor of sulphur. You couldn't taste the sulphur, but the water had a rather sweet edge to it........ quite delicious, actually. --- I was told that once the body has a regular exposure to arsenic, sudden cessation of arsenic exposure is potentially lethal....... in the epic series "Boardwalk Empire", the woman had been spiking the man's food with arsenic daily, but he didn't die until the regimen was interrupted. If true that sudden cessation of a regimen of arsenic results in an adverse response that can be remedied only by restoring the regimen, arsenic qualifies as a substance that causes physical dependence, aka "addiction". Who'd a-thunk it? One OTHER pretty nasty substance is cyanide, which comes in high levels in the pits of apples, peaches, cherries, apricots, almonds, etc. In Jamaica a local had taken me to an almond tree...... I was surprised to see him eating them fresh and raw. I've always thought roasting is necessary to cook out the cyanide. I'd eaten a few handfuls of fresh-picked almonds with no consequences.
Was watching Forensic Detectives se 9 ep 11 which was about Arsenic and I just wondered how it attacks the body... This is how I came here.. I'd love to k ow how it attacks the cells and how it ends up in the hair follicles... I wish you went into more about this terrible and great heavy metal.. Great job! 👍
Interesting point. That means sewer plants may have arsenic in their dry waste which is commonly distributed back to the community for use in their garden.
Jeremy, thanks for this information. I think I'll test the garden "compost" made available at my local sewer plant. The test for arsenic is fairly straight forward so this should be interesting.
Ankit, unfortunately arsenic stays inside the body for many years and may cause problems at some point or remain dormant. And, unfortunately, it is found in the drinking water of many communities, especially in western United States. No one can say if it will damage one person and not another, but many toxins (poisons) harm some and yet others seem to have no outward problem with the same level of arsenic stored in their bodies.
this has been described in the literature: Madame Bovary commits suicide by swallowing a large amount of arsenic rat poison. Initially she thinks: "is it that easy to die -- if only there wasn't that ink-taste." But the same evening it turns dramatic. If one wants to die, one should not eat and drink. Gives you time to rethink, to recuperate; it is supposed to be easy.
You’re just paranoid bro if you don’t trust your local Water Treatment that bad then go buy some 18.9L water chugs they cost 3$ to fill them here and I’m in Canada
I have MS and live beside big Agriculture.. found arsenic and Atrezine in my water... I am sick..
you mean you live in the countryside and during vegetation period occasionally it smells of chemical plant?

Btw, your studies will help save loads of people... You are an unsung hero..

Is eating 4 organic brown rice cakes every day too much due to the arsenic level in rice ?

Arsenic is used to brake down/process celluloid structure paper industry.
TP squeezabley soft, supple.

If you put a map of arsenic and mapped where you can dig up oil would you have a comparison?
What is your opinio on arsenic in homeopathic treatments? I am curious.
thx I was curious about arsenic!
Mam tell me if any person drink arsenic then how much take time the person will die.

There is arsenic in my water but supposedly the levels are safe, lol.
You’re just paranoid bro if you don’t trust your local Water Treatment that bad then go buy some 18.9L water chugs they cost 3$ to fill them here and I’m in Canada
for accumulating carcinogens there are no safe levels.
I’m content 😇
probably stop trying to test it out
obviously it’s a toxic chemical
