Discussion

Instructions

Post at least one comment to each of the questions listed below. Also post your own questions and thoughts on the lesson.

1. There are many potentially toxic materials in our normal diet, however the dose is below a "threshold" for effect.  Why do you think we can consume low levels of noted poisons like arsenic, lead, pesticides and mycotoxins without acute effects?
2. You may have heard the expression "dilution is the solution to pollution".  Think back to yesterday...did you drink the recommended 2 quarts (64 ounces) of water?
