Study Links 75 Years of Lead Exposure to U.S. Mental Health Crisis in Generation X
Dec 4, 2024, 08:05 AM
A recent study has revealed that decades of lead exposure in the United States, particularly from leaded gasoline, have contributed to a significant mental health crisis over the past 75 years. The research highlights that individuals born between 1966 and 1986, often referred to as Generation X, exhibit pronounced mental health and personality differences linked to childhood lead exposure. Conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and neurotic behavior have been associated with this exposure. This finding underscores the long-term impact of environmental factors on public health.
