Where is lead found?

Humans are exposed to lead in many ways. Deteriorating paint, household dust, bare soil, air, drinking water, food, ceramics, home remedies, hair dyes and other cosmetics are all potential sources of lead poisoning. But, by far the greatest concern is the lead paint that was used in the majority of homes prior to 1978.

According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates, there are approximately 38 million homes in the U.S. that still contain some lead paint.

And, it takes very little to poison a child. In fact, all it takes is the lead dust equivalent of a single grain of salt for a child to register an elevated blood lead level.

Laws and regulations have attempted to address this dangerous issue but it’s simply too big to alleviate all together. As a result, thousands of people suffer from varying degrees of lead poisoning every day.
