Exposure to lead paint can cause memory loss, negatively effect learning ability, interfere with your central nervous system, and cause reproductive problems. Lisa Brosseau, associate professor of environmental health sciences at the University of Minnesota, says that children are most at risk. <clip: So, how do I know whether my home has lead paint? <clip: Brosseau adds that if lead paint is in good condition, it’s much less of a concern. But if it’s flaking or leaving lots of dust, you should remove it. <clip: Brosseau says that if you’re concerned about your potential exposure level, you can either have your paint tested or have a blood test.
