Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic interrelationships between arsenic and selenium
TL;DR: Increased biliary excretion of selenium caused by arsenic provides a reasonable rationale for the ability of arsenic to counteract the toxicity of seenium, although the chemical mechanism by which arsenic does this is not certain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lead toxicity and nutritional deficiencies.
TL;DR: Experimental studies have shown that in some situations combined nutritional deficiencies can have an additive effect in potentiating lead toxicity, and Epidemiological surveys have suggested a negative correlation between the poor nutritional status of children with regard to calcium and the concentration of lead in blood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic interactions between metals and metalloids
TL;DR: It is suggested that multiple marginal nutritional deficiencies may be of importance in determining the response of humans to the toxic effects of various heavy metal pollutants.
