Default Dementia lost of memory versus leaded gasoline

Been reading up on dementia several studies, videos, and leaded gasoline IMO seems to be common denominator? Especially the study on children teeth from Egyptian era vs 60/50’s? 1000 times more lead in teeth and bones? I’m suspecting all of us born up 70s has high level of lead in our bones and highly subjective to higher rate of dementia?


Does lead exposure lead to dementia?
AI Overview
Yes, lead is a neurotoxin and research indicates it can cause or increase the risk of dementia and related memory problems later in life, particularly through childhood exposure. Studies show people exposed to higher levels of lead, especially in childhood from sources like leaded gasoline, were more likely to experience memory issues as adults. Lead may leave a lasting imprint on the brain, leading to neurodegenerative changes and cognitive decline.

One of many on internet. Something not good looking forward IMO for us baby boomers and older? Especially us who worked close to chemicals with lead. Leaded gas was banned in 1996 other than gasoline produced with lead in piston driven airplane gas otherwise known as AvGas. Non ethanol gasoline at pump(if you can find it) contains NO lead.
