![]() Rice takes up cadmium easily. Nearly half of the rice and rice products in southern China have very high levels of cadmium while rice produced in Thailand have also been tested postivie for cadmium. Seafood such as cuttlefish and vegetables grown in contaminated soil are often the source of large amounts of cadmium. Another source of hazardous exposure to cadmium comes from toys and imitation jewellery which children like to put into their mouths. Studies have shown that cadmium can be removed by GG probiotic. ![]() References: Halttunen T et al. Cadmium removal by Lactic Acid Bacteria. Bioscience and microflora. 2003;22(3):93-7 |
