1. Drinking contaminated water
The easiest and most effective way to get heavy metals into your system is to consume contaminated water.
Lead, arsenic, and cadmium aren’t going to magically show up in a pristine stream, so you’d have to focus on water that’s been exposed to industrial runoff, old pipes, or unregulated sources.
Where to find it:
- Water from areas near mining operations, old industrial zones, or regions that are poorly regulated for waste disposal.
Places with aging water infrastructure often have lead leaching from pipes into the water supply.
Arsenic is naturally found in some groundwater sources, especially in areas that have been subjected to agricultural runoff.
- Some public water systems don’t always do a great job of filtering out these metals, so drinking tap water in areas with weak regulations or outdated infrastructure will be the quickest route.
Flint, Michigan and other cities in America have faced these problems, so look for places with similar conditions.
How to make sure you’re exposed:
- Skip any sort of filtration.
Reverse osmosis filters, activated carbon filters, or even a basic pitcher filter to be exact.
- Drink directly from contaminated sources if you really want to go for the full experience, but public water systems with known issues are often just as effective.
2. Eating contaminated food
Certain foods (especially seafood and some vegetables) are notorious for accumulating heavy metals in their tissues.
There are plenty of ways to get your daily dose.
Mercury-laden seafood:
large predatory fish like swordfish, tuna, shark, and king mackerel are high on the food chain and accumulate mercury in their tissues over time.
| Fish | Average mercury level |
|---|---|
| Swordfish | 0.643 mg/kg |
| Shark | 0.56 mg/kg |
| Tuna | 0.311 mg/kg |
What You Need to Know About Mercury in Fish and Shellfish
A well-balanced diet that includes a variety of fish and shellfish can contribute to heart health and children's proper growth and development. Some fish and shellfish contain high levels of mercury that may harm an unborn baby or young child's developing

Seafood, Mercury, and Bioaccumulation
Readers have probably heard that there are limits on how much tuna you should eat because of the risks posed by mercury contamination. The same patterns of chemical pollution and biomagnification that make tuna potentially dangerous to human health also apply to many shark species, which means...

Mercury levels increase the longer the fish lives and the larger it is.
How to expose yourself:
Eat these fish regularly, especially larger fish like tuna or swordfish.
Avoid smaller fish that might have less mercury (sardines or salmon, for example), and stick to the big boys. d
Don’t bother with sourcing fish that’s caught in clean waters—go for the mass-produced ones with questionable sources.
Vegetables grown in toxic soil:
Vegetables like spinach, lettuce, and potatoes are particularly good at sucking up lead and cadmium from the soil.
Certain areas, especially those near old industrial sites or contaminated land, have toxic soil teeming with these metals.
How to expose yourself:
Eat conventionally farmed produce.
Go for anything grown in soil without proper checks for contamination, which can include produce from certain areas that haven’t been cleaned up from industrial use (Bonus points for buying produce from places with no environmental oversight)

3. Personal care products with heavy metals
A lot of cosmetics, especially cheap or unregulated ones, can contain traces of lead, mercury, and cadmium.
These metals can seep into your skin and even enter your bloodstream, making it a perfect way to slowly poison yourself.
Where to find them:
Lipsticks, foundations, and eyeliners are prime suspects.
In particular, cheap or imported cosmetics from countries with lower regulatory standards are likely to be contaminated.
How to expose yourself:
Regularly use these products, especially ones that don’t carry any kind of certifications or ingredient transparency. r
Rub them into your skin or lips every day for maximum exposure.
Skin-whitening creams from unregulated sources are known for containing mercury.

4. Exposure from the environment
Your home or workspace could be an open door to heavy metal exposure, especially if you’re in a space that hasn’t been renovated in decades.
If your home was built before 1978, there’s a good chance that they would mention “lead paint.”
Old buildings and dust:
If you’re living or working in a building built before the 1980s, chances are, you’ve got lead-based paint and asbestos in the walls.
Old paint chips are a prime source of lead, and asbestos fibers can float into your lungs when disturbed.
How to expose yourself:
Go ahead and inhale that dust. Eat those old paint chips. Play around with the drywall, especially if it’s breaking down and sending particles into the air.
Don’t worry about lead poisoning, or asbestos-related lung cancer.
5. Working with metals without protection
If you’re looking to really get up close with heavy metals, working in industries that deal with metals directly is a surefire way to get exposure. Whether it's welding, soldering, or even mining, you’re asking for a toxic overload if you're not using proper protection.
Industries involved:
Battery manufacturing, mining, welding, and smelting are prime offenders.
Workers in these fields are exposed to lead, cadmium, and other toxic metals regularly.
How to expose yourself:
Don’t bother with gloves, masks, or proper ventilation.
Inhale those fumes and dust.
Just let the heavy metals coat your lungs and skin while you’re at it.
Forget about safety standards—they’re for pussies.
6. Burning e-waste
This one’s particularly toxic—old electronics like batteries, phones, and computers can release toxic metals like cadmium, lead, and mercury when burned.
It’s a great way to introduce these metals into your system via inhalation.
Where to find it:
Go find yourself some discarded electronics—burn a bunch of old batteries, phones, or computers.
The heat will release heavy metals into the air, and you can breathe them in with every toxic puff.
How to expose yourself:
Burn that e-waste in your backyard or some open space where the fumes can spread freely.
Forget about air quality, or that it could fuck with your lungs and central nervous system.

7. ignoring symptoms of poisoning
Once you’ve gone all in on your exposure, don’t bother checking in with your body.
Symptoms of heavy metal poisoning range from brain fog, fatigue, digestive issues, and muscle weakness to organ damage.
Just ignore them until it’s too late.
How to expose yourself:
When the headaches hit, don’t bother seeing a doctor.
When your skin starts to break out, ignore it.
Don’t think twice about that random joint pain or that weird metallic taste in your mouth.
Continue your heavy metal diet. Keep going until your organs start crying.
Conclusion
Don't do this shit lmfao
