It should be. It has the same effect on people - they grow too much too fast, but remain immature and fragile both mentally and physically. They do hit puberty very early though.

Did you just requested "supplementing" children and adolescents with lead?

Looks like you had too much of it yourself :)

Yes, I did. The cognitive effects are devastating. The immature brains keep the high error tolerance that helps children to make sense of the world. This means that you are completely convinced that your answers are accurate, even when they are nonsense, as any problem that is below some kind of cognitive threshold simply doesn't register. You feel you have triple checked everything, and it's correct, it must be all the others who don't understand it. The entire progressivist mindset is a state of mind so infantile that it isn't normally seen, as normal children grew up from it before they acquired language. The results are catastrophic.

I really, really think you ate too many lead chips off the wall as a child.

The effects of neurotoxicity of lead is studied well enough at this point that anyone calling for _more_ lead in children's diet should themselves get tested for heavy metals or straight up admitted to the hospital,

There is NO SAFE LEVEL of exposure to lead. There is no safe amount of lead in blood. Any amount of lead in the organism is toxic and harmful and really, WTF are you even proposing.

Also in plants lead has exclusively negative effects. Negatively affects growth, photosynthesis, inhibits respiration, disrupts mineral nutrition, etc, etc. Worst of all, it accumulates so then it's transferred up the food chain.

Seriously, get yourself a blood test, something's waaaaay off, no one with IQ above 60-ish and with the access to internet should propose lead supplementing of children.

The last levels were 72μg/dL, I believe.

The studies are all wrong. That's the most dangerous thing about it. It's simply not possible for you as a victim to tell there is anything wrong with you, you can only tell in hindsight.

You must be trolling, this is just getting more dangerous than stupid.

There are NO safe levels provided by any reputable agency. 72μg you provide is about 20 times HIGHER than 3.5μg above which CDC recommends a corrective action.

"The studies are all wrong" -- show us your published work then, professor. I'm sorry but the level of the harmful communication in your comments would have, at this point, be supported by a massive body of evidence confirmed by irrefutable facts, followed by the Nobel prize in medicine.

I really think that if you're seriously thinking all that, you need help.

As I said, it's impossible to tell for the victims that there is anything wrong with them, or each other. In fact, there appears to be a threshold, below which the perception gets inverted, and the more severely affected are perceived as more intelligent. That's how we got those "resistance groups" who fought the regime and the brainwashed massess.

do you have any reference to that claim that Pb is positively correlated with growth/height, either in crops or in people?
