Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has established 10 µg/dL as the upper limit of acceptable lead levels, mostly because of a lack of studies showing adverse effects of lower levels. Two studies in the April 17 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine provide new evidence for establishing a lower limit. The first demonstrates that an increase from 1 to 10 µg/dL is proportionately associated with cognitive decline, and the second is a cross-sectional study showing delayed puberty for levels of only 3 µg/dL. A recent study reported by Medscape also showed that higher lead levels within the "acceptable" range were linked to increased blood pressure in postmenopausal women
In an accompanying editorial, Walter J. Rogan, MD, from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, and James H. Ware, PhD, from the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, note that eliminating elevated blood lead concentrations by the end of this decade is already a federal objective. Based on these studies, however, "the job may not be finished even when all children have blood lead concentrations below 10 µg/dl.
"The effects of lead exposure appear to be long-lasting and irreversible.
Looks like Iam ****ed!!! lol
Honestly tho some of these products have been around for years - if there was real problems with them they would of been taken off the shelves.
I think at one point syntha 6 was the biggest selling protein and also muscle milk was ....in the world.
Not saying these studies aren't true but sometimes you have to think where are they coming from...
Anybody can look for anything in any product and come up with a point of view.
Ever since the cardio/weights experiment that turned an entire race into fat slobs, I choose to ignore lab coats.
as Joel said, I'm f u c k e d as well lol
For the record, I'm 48, havent had a cold or flu since anyone can remember, I know I have lived at my current home for 10 years and certainly never been sick in that time.
I think I have so many nastys in my system that it scares all the colds/flus/diseases that my clients/friends seem to get.
Christian, your argument for cigarettes is typical lab coat. We know its bad because we see people dying from it, my dad for instance. He never had one protein drink in his life though.
Its funny to hear 20 year olds talking about this stuff. Thats why whatever Silverback says holds MUCH credibility (except for his view on box squats lol)
You wont die from taking PP, you wont even get sick.
I think you would have to have ALOT ALOT of this protein for years for it maybe to have any effect on you.
Iam sure eating a maccas burger is alot worse for you than having a serve of muscle milk tho.
Now I'm doubly f u c k e d .
Christian, I eat EVERYTHING and ANYTHING. I'm lucky in that ALL calories are good for me.
I normally wash down double quarters with protein drinks lol
You'll be wearing a coat somewhere along the line Christian lol
Howie is a naturopath. He was puzzled my health/eating/weight. He conducted a serious of tests and was blown away lol. He asked if I ate a lot of pineapple, thats how complete the testing was lol
I feel like Bruce Willis in Unbreakable.
I'll probably get run over tomorrow lol
Margarine has been around since WWII when there was a shortage of butter back then and it's a cancer causing product par excellence! Who would you expect to take the bad stuff off the shelves? I have no faith in anyone or any organisation, or any government (or government body) whose interest lies in their hip pocket, period.Honestly tho some of these products have been around for years - if there was real problems with them they would of been taken off the shelves.

Step back a little and perchance you may see the Mona Lisa with all its glory, for now you're so close to the canvas that your interpretation of it are posibly blurrred and out of focus.
