Well, if you really want to treat lead poisoning, you need a way to get it out of people's bones and organs. It doesn't stick around in the blood long term. And we already have chelation therapy for getting heavy metals out of blood.
- el_benhameen 4y agoYeah, I wondered about that. Blood lead levels remain high, though, correct? Seems like an alternative to the significant risks of chelation could be useful?
- Nasrudith 4y agoGiven that it is all metals including heavy ones I suspect these sponges would be even worse than chelation, even if it left calcium alone. Hello anemia.
