Current Research on Pediatrics
Researchers are revealed that elevated levels of
a metabolite of the banned insecticide DDT in the blood of pregnant women are
linked to increased risk for autism in the offspring. While DDT and PCBs
were widely banned in many nations over 30 years ago, they persist in the food
chain because their breakdown occurs very slowly, as long as several decades,
resulting in continuing exposure to populations. These chemicals are
transferred across the placenta in concentrations greater than those seen in
the mother's blood leads to autism in new born babies.
