There's an interesting post over at Safe Mama about protecting children from lead poisoning. We live in a neighborhood with a lot of older homes and I know of at least a couple of young kids who were found to have high levels of lead in their bodies. Since it's not typically tested for, it's hard to know how many other cases go undetected until the effects of chronic lead exposure are severe and irreversible!
Safe Mama is also a great resource for information on BPA/bisphenol-a/polycarbonate, safe beauty products, toys etc, if you're looking!
