When Qianqian was full moon, Grandma went to the silver shop and made a silver bracelet, a silver necklace.
Grandma said that the child wears silver well, which can bless the child's health and health!
And Qianqian's mother usually reads a lot of bloggers on the Internet to talk about parenting knowledge, one day inadvertently flipped to a blogger who did the evaluation, mentioned the silver bracelet silver necklace worn by the child, it is likely to exceed the lead standard!
This blogger @ Dad Review helped mothers measure 878 pieces of baby silver jewelry, of which 42 pieces of lead exceeded the standard, exceeding the national standard of 300mg/Kg limit, if according to the US limit of 100mg/Kg, it will exceed the standard even more.
Lead is a heavy metal that is toxic and can affect a child's IQ.
Wu Yiqun, an expert in the field of children's lead research in mainland China, pointed out that among all the harms caused by trace elements to children, the harm of children by lead is direct, which will cause intellectual harm to children, and this harm is irreversible.
Studies have found that low-level lead exposure promotes increased levels of nervous system oxidative stress in children, affecting nitric oxide synthase, affecting the hippocampus, prefrontal lobe.
Lead not only affects your child's brain development, but it can also lead to behavioral problems, such as ADHD.
Qianqian's mother saw the video of this blogger, went home and quickly took off all the children's bracelets, the child's grandmother said that she did not understand at that time, and then Qianqian's mother showed the video to her grandmother, and the grandmother did not make a sound.
Wearing a bracelet for a child is a blessing for many elderly people to the child, but the heavy metal in the bracelet exceeds the standard, which is a kind of harm to the child's body.
And the child wearing a bracelet will also affect his activities.
When the child sleeps at night, the bracelet will be pressed on the hand or the necklace will also suppress the child, affecting the child's sleep.
