A highly toxic metal that enters the human body in safe doses with many food products. In high concentrations, mercury can cause severe poisoning, while prolonged intake in small doses leads to the formation of characteristic symptoms of chronic mercury poisoning. Acute oral poisoning causes nausea, vomiting, severe abdominal pain, fever, and kidney damage. Symptoms of chronic poisoning with mercury vapors include weakness, fatigue, headaches, depressive states, tremors of the limbs, and impaired skin sensitivity.
