Health Threat: Lead poisoning can cause severe health effects including damage to the liver, kidneys, brain, nerves, bones and blood. Children are especially at high-risk because they routinely ingest non-food items contaminated with lead. Toxic levels of lead can cause permanent learning disabilities, retardation and even brain damage in young children. Documentation reveals that serious behavioral problems and learning disabilities are seven times more likely to occur in children exposed to low-levels of lead over an extended period of time (New England Journal of Medicine- Jan. 11, 1990). More recent studies indicate that there is no threshold for the toxic effects of lead. (New England Journal of Medicine April 17, 2003) In adults, lead poisoning can cause high blood pressure and reproductive problems. In pregnant women, the fetus is particularly vulnerable to lead's toxic effects.
