Sources of Arsenic

Much of my information comes from research, when this started I knew nothing about this subject, but why would the average person be concerned about arsenic. BECAUSE IT KILLS. How many deaths have already occurred by arsenic but taken as natural causes such as pneumonia, asthma, heart attack. These are the way you die of arsenic toxicity if don't know what you are dealing with. PLEASE take your health in your own hands and take a simple test that could save your life. Doctors do not test for arsenic on a regular basis, probably don't even think of this as a cause for symptoms, it will take up to 3 weeks to receive results of an arsenic urine tests, in that time pneumonia will kill you. From research, and this is a quote from http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/csem/arsenic/whosat_risk.html  Living near sources of high ambient air levels of arsenic. Now what does this statement say? Who is safe from this?  Significant exposure to arsenic occurs through both anthropogenic and natural sources. Arsenic is released into the air by volcanoes and is a natural contaminant of some deep-water wells. Occupational exposure to arsenic is common in the smelting industry (in which arsenic is a byproduct of ores containing lead, gold, zinc, cobalt, and nickel) and is increasing in the microelectronics industry (in which gallium arsenide is responsible). Low-level arsenic exposure continues to take place in the general population (as do some cases of high-dose poisoning) through the commercial use of inorganic arsenic compounds in common products such as wood preservatives, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and paints; through the consumption of foods and the smoking of tobacco treated with arsenic-containing pesticides; and through the burning of fossil fuels in which arsenic is a contaminant.  This is taken from an other website http://www.manbir-online.com/diseases/arsenic.htm   Few people die from arsenic because they ate or drank something, and most murders are shootings.  Please read the key words here and think about this, and save your life.
