Enhanced Leaching of Soluble Lead by Cooking Acidic Food in Glazed Pottery Sold at the Mexico-US Border
Cooking acidic dishes with earthen pottery cookware resulted in significantly higher lead leaching than cooking nonacidic foods. The consumption of a single portion of acidic food prepared in lead-glazed ceramics produces a significant increase in blood lead levels and resulting health consequences.
