You inspired me to look a bit deeper. A PubMed search on arsenic yielded
5249 hits. Adding such terms as diet, dietary, trace, nutrition, yielded
various subsets that included a few references to arsenic as a nutrient
using typical weasel words like "is suspected," "some evidence that,"
and so on. I got the impression that there is still little solid
research into the possible role of a number of suspected trace and
ultratrace nutrients. No point looking further. I'm not interested in
adding supplemental arsenic to my diet, but I'll continue to use sea
salt, just in case. Salt licks have to be paleo.
