Exposure matters: why the dose makes the poison
Update: 2025-10-15
Description
Apple seeds contain cyanide, a deadly poison. And yet, eating an apple will not kill you. In fact, it’s considered a healthy snack! That’s because it’s not just about what’s toxic but how much of it you are exposed to. In this episode, we take a closer look at the differences between hazards and risks and what that means for dangers that may be lurking in our food and drinks. We will also discuss how different groups may be affected, from the youngest to eldest, and why bodyweight is so important. Join us as we explore the impact our eating habits have on our exposure to chemicals and contaminants.
