While I do not question this person's claim exactly, I would certainly not take it to be absolute for a few reasons. First, blood tests are not great for detecting accurate levels of heavy metals, again, for many reasons. Second, the presence of antimony, (pentavalent and trivalent) is fairly pervasive, and especially in the plastics industry, and this contributes to water contamination which contributes to plant uptake, and so forth and so on. It's also apparently in the atmosphere from mining and other factors. Then we have the claimed presence of it in the electrical cord of air fryers. Probably so. But, is there any credible evidence showing that antimony can be dispersed from inside the cord, which is of course enclosed in a vinyl (plastic, maybe antimony in the plastic?) casing. I doubt seriously that only air fryers are using this in their cords if this is true. And if this can be released from the electrical cord into the surrounding air, can a person be absorbing this into their bloodstream? Certainly possible, but that would not be the main source most likely. It's also used in some medicines, according to the information. Lots of gaps and assumptions in this. I am not suggesting that the use of any heavy metals is ever necessary and certainly not healthy. The absorption of these, however, depends on so many factors. Personally, I see no reason to throw out an air fryer because of the cord, and I own no air fryers and never will, but for other reasons. While it's always good to warn others of potential toxic exposures, I think it's best to be prudent that all bases are covered and reason also be employed. All children should avoid all toxic substances when possible and an autistic child is already overloaded and that's what definitely needs to be addressed. It's very likely that even if they eat all "organic" they are indeed ingesting antimony and other heavy metals and other toxins through food and drink.
I'm questioning her statement, thats why I added the other information. I'm pretty sure she's talking about the heating element and not the electrical cord. Because Antimony is not a very good conductor so thats not where they use it and how would it get into the foods then. But the coating and dye's like in the plastic toys. Its good as heat and corrotion resistance so this article is more an addition to my other articles on antimony where I also show where the name comes from and exactly what kind of treatments they have been used for in the past.
Many places will tell you that the name comes from latin "anti" "monos" (not alone). But in an old news paper from 1790 they tell us the truth. That it was a druid monk who experimented with the mineral, fed the leftovers to pigs, they gained weight so he tried it on his fellow brothers and they all died. So the name comes from french antimoine - anti monk - monk killer.
Then they started selling it as a remedy for typhus fever. They used it for disinfecting wounds and so on.
So theres a lot of history about the mineral in my other articles.
perhaps should have elaborated as not everyone has read all the articles. But I'm considering putting all the information about antimony together in a more comprehensive article.
And yes autism is primarily caused exactly by injecting foreign substances like aluminum and mercury into children. Today the diagnosis is so broad here in Denmark though that it can be anything from bad parenting to the effect of vaccination. And thats to hide the fact that real autism is damaged nerves and brain from vaccination. Worse stages would be called paralysis, polio, meningitis, tetanus, epilepsy etc.
I knew there was something not right about those things, thanks for this!
