Lead is a very toxic substance, and exposure to it can have serious health consequences. In children, lead poisoning can cause learning disabilities, behavioral problems, and even death. The best way to prevent lead exposure is to keep your home and workplace free from dust and dirt containing lead. You can also reduce your risk by using lead-free paints and other materials when renovating or remodeling. If you are concerned about lead exposure, it is important to get tested regularly for lead levels.
