Heavy metals is something that is overblown frequently like lead which are both found naturally in soil everywhere and there will always be some amount. They are still excreted over time so it only really matters if you builds up large amounts and becomes toxic. For cats this is less of an issue than humans.

Speaking of heavy metals being everywhere, I wonder if that has anything to do with humanity always being fucking dumb
