Experts in Europe certainly think so, saying there’s a need for a Europe-wide effort that integrates data on children’s physical, chemical, biological, and psychosocial exposures.
LISBON, Portugal — Europe needs a Child Health Exposome Mission to better understand how to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases over the life course, protecting the health and well-being of future generations, said Peter van den Hazel, MD, PhD, vice president of the Europe an Public Health Association’s environment and health section.The exposome is the integrated compilation of all physical, chemical, biological, and psychosocial exposures that affect biology over a complete lifetime.
He stressed that exposures during the first 1000 days were very important in shaping the later health effects in children. “Studies show us that the impact of social exposures is much higher than we realized.” “Nurturing care is crucial and protective for mental health because the foundations for mental health are laid early — during the first 1000 days,” she said. “We need greater availability of good parental leave so they can be there for the child to bond properly. It’s so important, and this means taking time with the child; ideally good stress-free time.”
