Dear Naomi, in inner city Atlantic City, most lead comes from old housing
(paint), construction dust. Actually I rarely have had pub health trace it
back to old paint. Usually having mom begin to damp dust and wash
baby-toddler hands a lot, especially after being outside or before eating,
brings lead right down to acceptable levels. Lead, iron and calcium all
compete for the same places so a diet high in calcium and iron helps a lot
too. Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
