Elevated levels of lead and cadmium in food products are a serious health concern. Lead is a toxic metal that can affect almost every organ in the body, particularly the brain and nervous system. Even minimal exposure can cause harm, especially to children, pregnant individuals, and people with underlying health conditions. Cadmium, another toxic metal, can lead to kidney damage and affect bone mineral density after prolonged exposure.
