Health Ranger: heavy metals test results for lead, copper, arsenic, aluminum

(Natural News) THANK YOU to all the Natural News readers and fans who submitted water samples to our lab for ICP-MS testing.

Over the last year, we’ve processed over 600 water samples, and we’ve recently updated the 2017 numbers to include the most recent samples. Now, we have 364 water samples in 2017 alone, all tested for heavy metals like copper, arsenic and lead. We’ve also begun including aluminum results, given the very high level of interest in aluminum and its neurotoxicity.

You can view the 2017 water sample test results chart, sorted by zip code, at the following link at the Natural Science Journal. Some of the more notable results we found are listed below. Many of these results violate EPA water quality limits and expose potentially millions of Americans to toxic heavy metals in municipal water. (Why is nobody else conducting these tests? Why does the EPA cover this up?)

  • 413 ppb aluminum in zip code 06897
  • 1048 ppb aluminum in zip code 18371
  • 704 ppb copper in zip code 44035
  • 1117 ppb copper in zip code 51025
  • 1528 ppb copper in zip code 55418
  • 41 ppb lead in zip code 64836
