It's not good, heavy metals and bodies for example, those generate reactive oxygen species, so ROSs and reactive nitrogen species, RNS, and those can actually induce severe oxidative stresses, they can deplete cellular antioxidants, and they combine to DNA and nuclear proteins, and those can actually structurally damage cells, and in some cases if you have enough exposure, it can cause death, but when it damages the cells, it can cause death depending on the amount of damage to the cells, and of course,
