Is Human Health Threatened by Soil Quality

9:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
13 Nov 2026

In standard clinical settings, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension, diabetes, and several cardiovascular conditions, are usually labeled simply as “lifestyle diseases.”

In this IEHSC webinar, Prof. Arhin explains how his geochemical and medical geology studies in Southwest Ghana’s Wassa, may revealed a link between the occurrence of NCDs and specific geographic zones marked by high levels of toxic metals (including arsenic and chromium) as well as essential element deficiencies (such as magnesium and other vital minerals).
