Lead toxicity: Varying levels of lead exposure cause symptoms at different levels in kids and adults. The national health and nutrition examination survey concluded blood levels as low as 5-9 micrograms/deciliter were associated with increased risk of death from all causes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Point: stay clear from lead, and if exposed get treated to remove it from your body. Hope this helps.
