Lead poisoning
It's really harmful, and especially to small children because adults absorb 10% of lead, while children absorb 50% of it because they need calcium for their growth. That's why we should educate people about the dangers of lead so that they know the dangers of it, and how to prevent it from entering their bodies.
Treatment for lead poisoning varies depending on how much lead is in the blood. Small amounts often can be treated rather easily; the most important part of therapy is reduction of lead exposure. Gradually, as the body naturally eliminates the lead, the level of lead in the blood will fall. Calcium, iron, and vitamin C are important parts of a healthy diet and also help to decrease the way the body absorbs lead.
