Lead levels well below ‘safe’ limits hurts kids

Even more stuff they have no idea about what is "safe."

"Blood lead concentrations well below the accepted "safe" level harm youngster's intellectual and emotional development, a study released Thursday revealed.

Researchers from University of Bristol in the UK measured blood lead levels in 488 youngsters at age 2 and a half and linked these levels to scores on standardized assessment tests at age 7 to 8.

There was a clear link between blood lead levels in early childhood and academic performance by the ages of 7 and 8, the researchers report in the Archives of Disease in Childhood."

Oops.

Still trust them to know what a "safe" food, drug or supplement is?

If you do, you probably have ingested too much lead.
