Lead head
The mineral zeolite is marketed by some companies as a food supplement, claiming it can trap and remove heavy metals and toxins from the body. Yet one shipment of the powder from Germany was found to contain 55 mg/kg parts per million of lead.
The product was making its way to Austria, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland and Slovenia before it was flagged by Dutch authorities. All of the countries are following up the issue and the recipients have been informed.
