For those suffering from lead or other heavy metal poisoning, a protective diet that avoids processed foods and emphasizes the central components of a nutrient - dense and antioxidant - rich WAPF - style diet is essential (see sidebar).21 Nutritional status shapes susceptibility to lead toxicity
in important ways,
affecting lead's intestinal absorption; its mobilization, distribution and retention
in the body; and excretion.22 Because oxidative stress is a likely mechanism explaining some of lead's toxic actions, some investigators have begun to explore whether natural antioxidants and trace minerals may help mitigate lead - induced cell damage.17 Specifically, researchers
in Spain found that administration of vitamins A, B6, C and E along with zinc modulated some of the negative effects of lead exposure
in rat
pups, confirming the influence of nutritional factors on health outcomes following lead exposure.17 Vitamin D also should be a major component of a protective diet.
