Health Effects of Lead Lead affects the body in many ways. It is important to know that even exposure to low levels of lead can severely harm children. In children, exposure to lead can cause: o Nervous system and kidney damage o Learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, and decreased intelligence o Speech, language, and behavior problems o Poor muscle coordination o Decreased muscle and bone growth o Hearing damage While low-lead exposure is most common, exposure to high amounts of lead can have devastating effects on children, including seizures, unconsciousness, and, in some cases, death. Although children are especially susceptible to lead exposure, lead can be dangerous for adults, too. In adults, exposure to lead can cause: o Harm to a developing fetus o Increased chance of high blood pressure during pregnancy o Fertility problems (in men and women) o High blood pressure o Digestive problems o Nerve disorders o Memory and concentration problems o Muscle and joint pain Check Your Family for Lead Get your children and home tested if you think your home has lead. Children's blood lead levels tend to increase rapidly from 6 to 12 months of age, and tend to peak at 18 to 24 months of age. Consult your doctor for advice on testing your children. A simple blood test can detect lead. Blood lead tests are usually recommended for: o Children at ages 1 and 2 o Children or other family members who have been exposed to high levels of lead o Children who should be tested under your state or local health screening plan Your doctor can explain what the test results mean and if more testing will be needed. Other Sources of Lead While paint, dust, and soil are the most common sources of lead, other lead sources also exist: o Drinking water. Your home might have plumbing with lead or lead
