Target Information
Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can contaminate the environment through industrial emissions, old paint, and leaded gasoline, among other sources. Animals, particularly grazing livestock, can ingest lead from contaminated soil, water, and feed. Once ingested, lead accumulates in their bones and soft tissues. This poses a significant health risk to humans who consume meat, milk, or other products from these animals, as lead exposure, even at low levels, can cause severe health problems, including neurological damage, kidney failure, and developmental issues, especially in children.
