Stomach acids free the lead from the paint and the children then absorb it. Anyone who"burns off" leaded paint, or uses grinders or powered sanders to remove it may also be exposed to lead unless appropriate precautions are taken. A pregnant woman who is in a space where paint removal is creating a potential hazard may be at as much risk as a man, but her unborn child can be more seriously effected by lead if it is absorbed into her body.
