Antimony in your water
Health effects
Antimony is a metal that can leach from certain plumbing and from industrial pollution. Long-term exposure can raise cholesterol and lower blood sugar, and it irritates the digestive system. It is uncommon but tightly limited.
The guideline vs. the legal limit
The federal legal limit is the maximum allowed by law. The EWG health guideline is what independent scientists consider safe — it is often far stricter.
