Here’s an image I just put together of several things I have tested with an XRF (and collected!) in recent months! Please let me know if you have any questions. There’s a second copy of the image below without the text bubbles so you can see the items more easily!

Tamara: Seems to me that lead is every ware and it’s in the air we breath and water we drink. The best lead and heavy metal test to do for oneself is to have and extraction test for heavy metals which is administered by a doctor in Integrative Medicine who gives you a CAEDTA IV and then collects a 6 hour worth of urine and sends that to Doctor’s Data in IL, for a full metal screening. This test will determine if the metal is now hiding in your bones. My friend had this and she had very high levels of lead in her bones and brain which was causing inflammation also throughout her entire body. Great test and this is a better test than just doing a blood test for lead. You need to do both tests. It seems that most everything you test contains lead so tell us what does not contain lead. That might be more helpful. Everything made before the 1970 contained a lot of heavy metals. Just a thought. 🙂

Send me a picture and I can give you an educated guess.
My mother just gave me a set of Corelle Spring Meadow dishes. Would they gave a high lead level?
