Nutritional Modulation of Associations between Prenatal Exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants and Childhood Obesity: A Prospective Cohort Study

Abstract

These results support that maternal nutritional status may modulate the effect of prenatal exposure to POPs on childhood overweight/obesity. These findings may help to develop a biological hypothesis for future toxicological studies and to better interpret inconsistent findings in epidemiological studies. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP11258.
