A Question of Poisoning

I’m reading my criminology text and in one section the author talks about theorists proposing that lead poisoning, or rather, higher levels of lead in the body, has been linked to certain behaviour problems. My question is, to anyone out there who knows about this stuff, does the lead get processed out of the body once a person has been removed from the environment that had elevated lead levels?

I’d look it up, but I don’t have the time to hunt down an accurate answer on the internet.

Thanks to any knowledgable person.
