Nutrients and environmental toxicants: effect on placental function and fetal growth

Abstract

Understanding the mechanisms by which environmental factors impact reproductive health is crucial for informing public health interventions and policy decisions. By elucidating the pathways through which environmental stressors exert their effects, we can develop targeted strategies to mitigate risks and promote reproductive well-being. In this lecture, we will delve into the latest research findings and emerging trends in the field of environmental reproductive health. By exploring the intricate interplay between environmental exposures and reproductive outcomes, we aim to broaden our understanding of this complex relationship and its implications for human health. Through collaborative efforts across disciplines, we can work towards safeguarding reproductive health for current and future generations.
