Birth Defects of Mercury Poisoning
, 03 11th, 2010
With all that is now known about genetics and heredity, we not only have to consider our own health, but also that of our offspring and future descendants. While abstaining from smoking cigarettes and fatty foods can prevent passing along certain traits, there are several genes, conditions and diseases that we bestow that are largely out of our control. To that end, there are several birth defects mercury poisoning can be the cause of.
Severe cases of mercury poisoning can lead to a disease known as Minamata. While people with the disease are more likely to pass on certain defects to their children, it is also possible that mercury poisoning can cause birth defects even when there are no signs in the parent. There are several documented cases where children were born with severe birth defects that are believed to be linked to mercury poisoning, despite the parents showing no symptoms themselves.
