Overview
Lead is a toxic metal that can be found in the environment and can enter your body through various sources such as contaminated water, air, or food. High levels of lead in the blood can cause serious health problems, including damage to the brain, kidneys, and nervous system. It helps assess if you have been exposed to high levels of lead and determine if any further action is needed to prevent or manage lead poisoning. Elevated levels of lead in the blood can indicate ongoing exposure or recent ingestion of lead-containing materials.
