QUESTION: What is the role of lead in the functioning of the human body? 31 Oct 2002, Singapore

Role of lead on our body function ?
ANSWER: 29 Jul 2004

Dear Oh,
lead has no role to play in the healthy functioning of any organism on the planet. It is not a trace mineral. Lead is not essential for body functioning. If you would like to know about the negative impacts of lead in the body,  please see  Health Impacts of Lead Poisoning
