How much lead is necessary as part of a balanced breakfast?

What are the effects of lead deficiency in human beings?

Lead deficiency leads to higher IQ, reduced aggression, general lack.of headaches, nausea and grossly reduced rate of brain damage.

Not sure but Alex Jones products will get your lead levels right up.

I can't believe that I never actually tried to look up "lead deficiency" in a paper.
>>14616972
Wrong. It's mostly diabetes, brain damage, and nearsightedness.

>leads to higher IQ,
I think I should actually look into if that may not be also true. Maybe it could explain that "dysrationalia" that has been written about. (that is people who seem to obviously fail at making intelligent decisions intelligent despite high measured IQ)

It obviously does cause a cognitive dysfunction of some kind, but maybe it also increases IQ in the process, possibly because of the oversensitivity to patterns?

As for the paper in OP, these are expected results, as lead is needed for metabolizing glucose, both for burning for energy and conversion into fat. So with a carb based diet this is what you would expect.

It obviously does cause a cognitive dysfunction the affected seem to make nonsensical unjustified conclusions and can get completely convinced of obvious nonsense (exacly as described in the "dysrationalia") but maybe it also increases IQ in the process, possibly because of the oversensitivity to patterns?

You could take a small piece of lead once in the morning that would last the rest of your life

No. A lifetime dose would make you sick, the body wouldn't absorb that much at once anyway, and won't hold on it forever even if it did.

I think he is saying to kill yourself by firing a lead bullet into your body
