I'm kind of alarmed at how not-alarming people are finding this. The idea that eating the foods we most need to eat for health will result in heavy metal poisoning via a vector about which there is no regulatory control or even awareness is a pretty big deal.
I hope someone more serious is looking into it (or has already done so) but my alarm is checked by the crack-pot flags this guy's raised for me. Most obviously that he tries to demonstrate P(A|B) by testing P(B|A) - if you don't understand basic statistics, your conclusions are suspect.

This is definitely something that deserves more attention. The long term effects of trace amounts of heavy metals is something very alarming indeed.
