Factors that should be considered when formulating measures to protect children from environmental health threats have been examined. Children are particularly susceptible to chemical injury before birth, as well as in their early months and years of life, when their consumption of food and drink, relative to body weight, greatly exceeds that of adults. Moreover, children s metabolic pathways are immature and are less able to detoxify potentially harmful environmental chemicals than adults. Several chemicals that are deleterious to children s health have been identified by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, and an EPA report has proposed a national agenda to protect children from environmental health threats (Wiant, 1997). [Pg.258]
