To avoid suffering from any food related problems, they should be knowledgeable about the nutritional value of any food or drinks taken by the children. A recent news states that some brands of fruit juice contains excessive amount of arsenic. Arsenic interferes with cellular longevity by allosteric inhibition of an essential metabolic enzyme. Symptoms of arsenic poisoning include headache, confusion, convulsion, diarrhea, vomiting, and in severe cases coma and death. The FDA’s limit is 23 parts per billion for juice, as the FDA believes that people will consumer more water than juice in a day. Therefore, the agency allows more arsenic in juice because the greater consumption of water will “balance out” the greater arsenic content. Read more: http://www.newsytype.com/13...
