Will you be exposed to arsenic in your daily life? What harm does arsenic do to human body?

Arsenic is a so-called metalloid, which is very toxic. Arsenic trioxide, commonly known as arsenic, is a deadly poison. Arsenic is also a mineral, which is very common in China. Arsenic produced in China accounts for half of the international market. Gallium arsenide is a good semiconductor material.

In addition to the normal production process, arsenic will also enter people's daily lives through pollution, which will do harm to health. The most common source is water polluted by arsenic, which is more common in China, Southeast Asia and some parts of North America. Polluted surface water will cause arsenic poisoning if it is not treated and drunk. Arsenic has been used as medicine or widely used as pesticide for fruit trees, and its application has caused environmental pollution.

Arsenic is often used in traditional Chinese medicine, which "proves" the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine by making people feel fever. But in fact, such traditional Chinese medicine not only has no benefit to human diseases, but will make people chronically poisoned.

Arsenic can not only cause death through poisoning, but also cause various cancers, including skin cancer, lung cancer and bladder cancer.
