You're right, nowhere does it mention toxicity, except the entire article.
And you're right, I am not sure there aren't any heavy metals in my leather and fabric straps.
And you're also correct that the stainless straps that I do have which I bought from a jeweler I am additionally uncertain about their contents aside from the manufacturers certification.
But weren't you talking about silicone?
No, dude. You don't understand what I said. You just quoted the original article. I'm saying the cited articles in the article are not be claiming toxicity at all. They are claiming presence, but not toxicity. I do not know where this study got off citing those sources when they make no claims as such.
