OVERCOMING THE HIDDEN EPIDEMIC OF HEAVY METAL TOXICITY FOR VIBRANT HEALTH
Heavy metal pollution--an emerging challenge for health in the country...
About this
programme
H
eavy metal pollutants in the
environment have become a
matter of concern as the concentration
of these toxic metals is increasing
day by day in biotic and abiotic
environment of India. Anthropogenic
emission of these toxic metals is
more alarming in the developing
countries like India where rapid growth
in urban and industrial sectors has
occurred in a very short period and
to a great extent in an unscientific
manner. Being a cumulative and nonbiodegradable poison, chronic heavy
metal exposure is more detrimental
to man and animals. Moreover, food
chain contamination with heav y
metals (vegetation, animal products
such as milk, meat and eggs etc)
has emerged recently a matter

animal health. Due to extensive
research in the subject in last
two decades, it has become
possible to detect subclinical as
well as subtle health hazards of
toxic metal in biological system.
The same effort has resulted
in identification of number of
strategic approaches to mitigate
these subclinical toxic effects,
specifically, when use of metal
chelators is contraindicated.

of environmental pollution and
its effect on animal health was
initiated in 7th five year plan in
the Division of Experimental
M e d i c i n e a n d S u r g e r y.
Subsequently, the research
programme on environmental
pollution continued in the
newly emerged independent
Division of Medicine since
1993. The Medicine Division
has the distinction of
completion of 4 research
programmes and has the
credit of Mapping of lead,
cadmium, arsenic and fluoride
pollution pockets in different
industrial and urban areas
in the country. The research
programmes also studied
toxic effects of heavy metals
at cellular level and identified
their amelioration with the use
of eco-friendly safer drugs
including those from herbal
system of medicine.
