Health Implications Of Heavy Metal

Heavy metals are a natural site of volcanic activity, but indiscriminate human activities have dramatically altered their cycles of geologic and biochemical equilibrium. This results in the accumulation of metals in parts of plants that contain secondary metabolites, which is responsible for some pharmacological activity. Prolonged exposure to heavy metals such as cadmium, copper, lead, nickel and zinc may cause health effects in humans. The molecular understanding of plant iron accumulation has many biotechnological consequences and, its long-term effects may not be known. Any toxic metal can be called heavy metal, regardless of the size of the atom or mass. Heavy metals are a member of a poorly defined structure that reflects metal objects. These include transition metals, other ironloids, lanthanides, and actinides. One source describes heavy metals as one of the most common metals for metals, such as copper, lead, and zinc. These metals are the result of pollution from sources such as lead fuel, industrial waste, and the introduction of metals from soil to lakes and rivers by acid rain. Three major pharmaceutical programs are being developed in India: Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani-Tibb. These programs use natural drugs to build plants, animals and mineral preparations.
