A commmon cause of lead poisoning is exposure to old paint, paint chips, etc. Old paints were full of lead. So for example, if you live in an old house with flaking paint, the paint particles are in the air, you breathe them in, they get in your food etc. and since they contain lead, you're inhaling or ingesting that too.Basically, any overexposure to lead, exposure to high levels of lead, etc. over a period of time can lead to lead poisoning.
