Get Educated. Get Empowered.
This lead poisoning prevention week, take action by getting educated. There's more to know about lead.
- Lead is a toxic metal that has been used in many products over time - including in spices, makeup, and even home remedies.
- Children less than six years old are at a higher risk of lead exposure. Their bodies are rapidly developing and more susceptible to taking in lead if exposed, even in small amounts.
- No amount of lead in the body is safe.
