Whenever the health Nazi stuff comes up trying to needlessly scare people, I go read the MDSD for the product in question.
To start, Material Safety Data Sheets are designed for doctors and safety people to understand, not the general public. They are dry and very clinical, using lots of acronyms. So if some soccer mom reads the MDSD for DHMO, she gets the vapors, not realizing DHMO is water.
I always look at toxicological data, usually lab tests on rats. I review the LD50, which is the lethal dose for about 50% of the population that ingests it.
The LD50 for acrylamide is 565 mg/kg. So, a 190 lb man weighs about 4.5 kG. 565X4.5=1543 mG of acrylamide.
Since acrylamide levels in coffee are about 200 parts per billion (of 1 billions drops of coffee, 200 are pure acrylamide) the trace amount.
If you were to take that further, a billion drops of water equates to about 28 billion gallons of coffee. Of that, 200 milligrams are acrylamide. That equals roughly FOUR DROPS of Acrylamide in 28 billion gallons of coffee.
Result-California regulators are scientifically illiterate and completely insane.
I think you're dysacronymic. ;-)
Check you math on the Man’s weight.
