Overview
Nickel is a metal found in soil, water, and air. Nickel is used to preserve metals by plating them, but its main use is in the creation of alloys, particularly stainless steel, because of its resistance to corrosion. When nickel enters your body, it can cause allergic reactions or toxicity.
