Para los habitantes de la capital colombiana, la respuesta a esta pregunta puede ser \u201cs\u00ed\u201d, seg\u00fan dos estudios de la Universidad Nacional.<\/p>\n

Uno de ellos, apoyado por Colciencias, comprueba que las hortalizas de la sabana de Bogot\u00e1\u2014incluyendo el apio, la lechuga, el repollo y el br\u00f3coli\u2014 presentan altas concentraciones de metales pesados y t\u00f3xicos. Son tan altas que exceden varias veces los niveles m\u00e1ximos permitidos, por ejemplo, por la Uni\u00f3n Europea y el ICONTEC.<\/p>\n

Las toxinas provienen del r\u00edo Bogot\u00e1, la \u00fanica fuente h\u00eddrica que los agricultores de esta zona afirman tener. Una vez regados los cultivos, las plantas absorben las sustancias y no hay manera de extraerlas. En el men\u00fa, hay ars\u00e9nico y cadmio, que se acumulan en \u00f3rganos como el coraz\u00f3n, el h\u00edgado y los pulmones. Tambi\u00e9n se encuentra plomo \u2014que en concentraciones excesivas da\u00f1a los ri\u00f1ones, el tracto gastrointestinal y las neuronas\u2014, y mercurio \u2014que afecta el cerebro y el sistema nervioso. Los efectos son de largo plazo: el cuerpo demora dos d\u00e9cadas en eliminar el plomo. El mercurio se queda con nosotros toda la vida.<\/p>\n

Mientras todos los que comen y viven de estos cultivos, incluyendo los mismos agricultores y productores, esperan un plan de tratamiento de las autoridades competentes, se aumentan los riesgos de varios tipos de c\u00e1ncer, hipertensi\u00f3n, irritaci\u00f3n de los pulmones y trastorno renal.<\/p>\n

El otro estudio, difundido esta semana, sugiere que la contaminaci\u00f3n en las ciclorrutas de Bogot\u00e1 puede ser tan extrema que tiene efectos nocivos para la salud de los ciclistas. Se encontr\u00f3 en uno de los corredores principales que la concentraci\u00f3n de part\u00edculas del humo vehicular, industria local y polvo en la calle es dos veces m\u00e1s que la m\u00e1xima recomendada por la Organizaci\u00f3n Mundial de la Salud.<\/p>\n

Frente a esto, se ha propuesto que los ciclistas usen \u201ctapabocas de tipo industrial\u201d o escojan \u201crutas que atraviesen parques o v\u00edas secundarias\u201d. De lo contrario, padecer\u00e1n riesgos elevados de asma, enfermedad pulmonar cr\u00f3nica y enfisema.<\/p>\n

Con estas dos revelaciones, los habitantes de la ciudad tenemos un panorama de salud p\u00fablica bastante desolador. Ojal\u00e1 que reaccionemos, llamando la atenci\u00f3n de las autoridades, y que no respondamos con resignaci\u00f3n, como me contest\u00f3 un colega cuando se enter\u00f3 del primer estudio citado: \u201cPues, nada. Quiz\u00e1s desarrollemos inmunidad\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
