Abstract "Children's Environmental Health is an academic discipline, a branch of pediatrics, that studies how environmental exposures in early life - chemical, physical, nutritional and social exposures - influence health, development and risk of disease in infancy, childhood and across the entire human lifespan. The focus of children's environmental health is on the discovery, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases in children that are associated with harmful exposures in the environment. Children's environmental health also studies how positive environments protect children's health and nurture healthy growth and development. Children's environmental health is sometimes termed "environmental pediatrics""-- Provided by publisher.
