In this episode, Elwin Robinson takes a deep dive into lead toxicity — a massively underdiagnosed problem he personally faced after testing 10 times over the reference range. He covers the symptoms, why lead hides in your bones for decades, how to test for it properly, and the real strategies for reducing your burden, from chelators and binders to calcium, zinc, and peptides.
