Well then by all means gobble down the soy, such a statement is foolish. It’s funny, take colloidal silver at 10 ppm and people will tell you how dangerous it is but hexane at 21 ppm and they scoff at it, whatever, I won’t post such stories, seems like freepers equate this to environmentalism or something.
That's because at ppm levels, heavy metals CAN be toxic. It takes MUCH higher doses of hexane to have anywhere near a toxic effect:
"The neuropathic toxicity of n-hexane in humans is well known[3] ; cases of polyneuropathy have typically occurred in humans chronically exposed to levels of n-hexane ranging from 400 to 600 ppm, with occasional exposures up to 2,500 ppm."{Wikipedia}
This is just more alarmist eco-propaganda (remember Alar???)
You know what? I went back and read my post to you, and gosh was I a snarky poop! Sorry my FRiend. I guess I have just gotten jaded over the years by the “flavor-of-the-day-this-is-gonna-kill-everyone” type scares. Seriously, very sorry, did not mean to be a #&%()#&^#))%&#.

Yup - this is about the last place you would want to post something like this — unless just for kicks.
