The Facts About Lead Exposure and Its Irreversible Damage
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention emphasize steps to avoid lead exposure and quickly taking action to mitigate its effects."Is There a Treatment for Lead Poisoning?
There is no way of reversing damage done by lead poisoning, which is why pediatricians emphasize prevention. But a diet high in calcium, iron and vitamin C can help the body absorb less lead. And people with extreme lead poisoning can undergo chelation therapy, which involves injecting chemicals into the body that bind with lead so that it is excreted in urine. But research has found that chelation therapy cannot reverse damage already done to the brain or nervous system."
