Poisoning can cause eyes, skin, stomach, chest and breathing issues, insomnia, weakness, exhaustion, weight loss. Serious in issue children.

Cadmium (0.01%) is a heavy metal with many uses, including rechargeable batteries, alloys, coatings (electroplating), solar cells, plastic stabilizers, and pigments aswell as nuclear reactors and is also present in cigarette smoke.

Cadmium is considered a cancer-causing agent, where breathing high levels lungs and can cause death. Exposure to low levels of cadmium in air, food, water, and particularly in tobacco smoke over time may build up cadmium in the kidneys and cause kidney disease and fragile bones.

Cadmium is covered by the EU and UK Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS) directive and regulations, meaning its use is restricted to 0.1% in products through application and monitored, along with other substances that include lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP).
