Jermy Pivin does not have mercury poisoning, rather he has mercury exposure proven by the lack of symptoms in his case. In the paragraph describing the difference between Mercury Exposure vs Mercury Poisoning it states that, "You can build up a blood or tissue level but not yet manifest symptoms related to poisoning." This proves that, in Jermy Pivin's case, he did not have poisoning because their were no explicit details referring to poisoning. What Jermy had was a "thresh hold." While, although, having high levels of mercury he did no under go any "physical or chemical change." A person who did face physical or chemical changes would have notice symptoms such as "problems with kidney, issues with the ability to urinate. . . trouble with motor control, the flu." These symptoms were not found, or at least not said, in the article meaning that he was not poisoned but only exposed. I agree because in one of the paragraphs the author said that you could be exposed to mercury but you wouldn't show any symptoms and I think that is what is happening to Piven, he's been exposed to it for a long time. |

What evidence showed to Jermy Pivin did or did not have mercury poisoning? What do you think the purpose of the article was? I don't think he had mercury poisoning because it doesn't say anything about him having any symptoms, it just states that he, "has mercury levels five to six times higher than normal." So in the section Mercury Exposure vs. Mercury Poisoning it states, "a person with no symptoms, no changes physically or chemically, we just say they've been exposed and have a high mercury level. It doesn't become poisoning under the true definition unless someone has had physical or chemical changes in his or her body." If they just have a high blood level they were just exposed to it not poisoned. |

In the section of the article called: Mercury Exposure vs. Mercury Poisoning, it states that, "it doesn't become poisoning under the true definition unless someone has had physical or chemical changes in his or her body." In the article it only stated that Jeremy Piven's results showed he had "mercury levels five to six time higher than normal," but no where in this article does it say that Piven had a physical or chemical change in his body. Jeremy is exposed to mercury not poisoned by it. I agree with you, because he stated that he had a fish diet along with herbs. But he did not have a physical or chemical changes like you stated in your evidence. Just a high exposure to mercury. |

The author wants to make sure the reader knows what the mercury poisoning is and how someone might know if it is mercury poisoning. An evidence that the author makes is he puts a actor named Jeremy Piven. He talks about how he might have mercury poisoning inside him. Pivens Doctor Colker says, " we are not sure if this is from his diet which is high in fish, or Chinese herbs , which he's been a fan of in the past." Will there are some fish that do have a high level of mercury. Piven might eat any kind of fish without knowing what that kind of fish has. The author explains that their a different kind of fishes that have high levels he says, "there are certain types of fish that can accumulate higher levels of mercury than others. If you exist on a diet of that fish, you can mount some very high levels. Pivens was going through a diet as well which might have caused him to get mercury poisoning. That author shows different reasons of how the someone might have mercury poisoning and I believe that Pivens does have that problem for eating to much fish.

Jeremy Pivin does not have Mercury poisoning just has a high exposure to it. In the article "what is Mercury poisoning" it stated "You can build up a blood or tissue level but not yet manifest symptoms related to poisoning. This is a thresh hold." This shows that even though he has high exposure he does not show cases of physical or chemical changes, another way to show he does not have Mercury poisoning is the true definition of it which is "it doesn't become poisoning under the true definition unless someone has a physical or chemical changes in his or her body." This shows that he is asymptomatic which means he has high blood level consistent with exposure but not real poisoning I agree with Julian he gave good reasoning and what he said seems right and he got what I got |

Jeremy Pivin did not have mercury poisoning because he had not shown any sort of physical or chemical change. In the paragraph, "Symptoms of Mercury Poisoning," it stated , "The nervous system effects are what someone would see first." This proves that Jeremy Pivin did not have met user poisoning because there was no record of his nor the doctor saying that Pivin had any physical or chemical change. He would have gotten some type of symptom if he had always used Chinese herbs or ate mercury-rich sushi. "His diet, which is high in fish, or Chinese herbs, which he's been a fan of in the past." Poisoning symptoms should have already shown if both the sushi and herbs were high in mercury. The high level of mercury only show that he has sometime of exposure. I agree with you Ana because he did not show any symptoms of a person who would have mercury poisoning. All he had was mercury expose. This can be proven by the results his doctor gave him. |

Jeremy Pivin might have had mercury poising because he blames a mercury-rich sushi diet and the use if herbal medicine. As stated in the second to last paragraph, Mercury poisoning and fish, it states, " There are certain types of fish that can accumulate higher levels of mercury than other. If you exist on a diet of that fish, you can mount some very high levels." This proves that he may have gotten mercury poisoning from the sushi diet because it could have contained high levels of mercury and dieting could have created higher levels. In the last paragraph, Herbal remedies and mercury poisoning, it states, "Herbal medicines made outside the country can potentially contain toxic quantities; it depends where they're coming from and how they're being made." This proves that the herbal medicines affected him because he took the risk of mot knowing exactly what was in the bottle and the toxins could have affected the levels of mercury and increased them. I disagree with this because Jeremy Piven did not have mercury poisoning, he just had a high exposure to it.  |

Pivin didn't have any changes in his body, which means that he was only exposed to it. |

Jordan, I agree with you because Jeremy wasn't reported to have any symptoms only those high levels of mercury in his system. All the evidence form the article only proves that he was exposed to mercury but not poisoned by it. |

I agree with Norma me and her got the same answer and she gave awesome evidence |

I think that Jeremy Pivin did not have mercury poisoning because the symptoms are simply not there. Since he ate fish and herbs that means it was from organic mercury which would effect the nervous system. His doctor said he merely had " five to six times higher than normal" levels of mercury, he did not say he was having issues related to senses nor respiratory systems. Also, when it comes to the difference between mercury poisoning and mercury exposure it's clear that Jeremy had had "no symptoms, no changes physically or chemically" therefore it was just he was exposed and his levels were up. I agree with you because even though he had mercury levels five to sic times higher than normal does not mean that he has poisoning he was just exposed to it. You were right that no physical or chemical changes occur and in order for it to be mercury poisoning there had to be physical and chemical occurrences. |

You have a good point, but I don't think he had poisoning because it never stated in the article that he had had any physical or chemical changes in his body. |

I disagree with you because the way to prove that he had mercury poising was if he had any physical or chemical change in his body, which he didn't. It was never mention, so he has only been exposed to high levels of mercury. |

I feel that Jeremy piven did have mercury poisoning. In the beginning of the paragragh it states "blaming a mercury rich diet and possibly herbal medicine his doctors say test have reveled the proven has mercury leves five to six times higher than normal". So here you see the fact that he's Mercury levels are abnormally high. Also he probably has been consuming it for a long time. In the article in the Mercury exposure vs mercury posining it states "it doesn't become poising under the true definition". So since his body has been exposed for a long time he could be asymptomstic

In the article, actor Jeremy Piven does not have mercury poisoning because there wasn't no physical nor chemical changes. In the section Mercury vs. Exposure, it states " Just because you're exposed to a toxin doesn't mean you get poisoned. You can build up a blood or tissue level but not yet manifest symptoms relating to poisoning. This is a threshold". This applies to Piven because he had 5 to 6 times higher levels of mercury in his body. Although, in the same section it states, "It doesn't become poisoning under the true definition unless someone has had physical or chemical changes in his or her body". This demonstrates how Piven couldn't have had mercury poisoning because on where in the article did it state that Piven had physical or chemical change in his body.
