Funny thing(below not my goat)
My grandson has been dealing with low level lead poisoning for 3 years. It’s finally under control and we firmly believed it was from apple products.
Had him at his pediatrician few weeks back and we discussed how great he is doing etc…I said it was the apples…
She looked at me like I was bat shit crazy…
Guess who called me this morning after seeing this on the news!
