Lead in Garden Hoses

Be careful in your yard this summer! Did you know it's normal for garden hoses to be made with lead? There are warning labels in the packaging of hoses saying don't drink from the hose. But also, don't fill your pool up with a lead hose either! We just found this out yesterday and it makes us frustrated with all the contamination going around. No wonder autism and ADHD rates are so high, with heavy metals so readily available to be absorbed, in so many ways! Yes, heavy metals are directly related to neurological problems, did you know that? This irritates me personally because we have taken food allergens out and eat a high-raw diet and have greatly reduced Rychen's Aspergers symptoms - his anxiety is gone, but he is still very hyperactive. If only we lived in a clean world, but alas, there is just too much corruption.
