Lead is a toxic metal that poses serious health risks, especially when it contaminates drinking water. Exposure to lead, even in small amounts, can cause a range of health problems, particularly in vulnerable populations like children and pregnant women. This is why ensuring that plumbing systems are free from lead is crucial for maintaining the hygienic safety of drinking water.

Health Problems Caused by Lead

ㅤ

1. Developmental Issues in Children

Lead exposure in children can lead to severe developmental delays, learning difficulties, and behavioral problems. Even low levels of lead can negatively impact brain development, resulting in long-term cognitive and physical health challenges.

2. Kidney Damage

Lead can accumulate in the body over time, causing damage to the kidneys. This can lead to chronic kidney disease or worsen existing kidney conditions, particularly in adults exposed to lead over prolonged periods.

3. High Blood Pressure and Heart Disease

Long-term exposure to lead is associated with an increased risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. Lead interferes with the body’s ability to regulate blood pressure, putting individuals at higher risk of heart attacks and strokes.

4. Reproductive Health Issues

Lead exposure can also affect reproductive health. In men, lead has been linked to reduced sperm count and quality, while in women, lead can cause miscarriages, premature births, and other pregnancy complications.
