Low/No Nickel Bok Choy Mushroom Stir Fry

My latest kick is heavy metals and/or toxic or potentially problematic metals found in food.  One example is nickel, which is a carcinogen listed by OSHA as a toxic metal, although it's primarily only an issue for most people if inhaled.  See ​https://www.osha.gov/SLTC/metalsheavy/nickel.html.  

A growing number of people are allergic to nickel - possibly due to increased exposure to it from cell phones, iPads and the like, and it can cause rashes and other dermatological problems.  It's in a  LOT of foods, particularly...sorry everyone...chocolate.  See, e.g., www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3667300/.  

To actually eliminate nickel and other metals from your diet is virtually impossible, however, you can keep them to a minimum.  Here is one of my favorite nickel-free/low nickel recipes from "Garden to Table":
