Look after baby’s Immune System during pregnancy
According to Rodney R Dietert, research in the field of DIT (Developmental immunotoxicology) focuses on the effect of exposure to biological materials, drugs, medical devices, chemicals and other environmental factors on the developing immune system of fetuses, babies and children. Findings so far indicate higher risk of asthma, autism, diabetes, leukemia and other diseases due to exposure to these substances.
Dietert calls for an increase in awareness; a good immune system can improve quality of life and reduce the need for health care.
