A review of the impact of xenobiotics from dietary sources on infant health: Early life exposures and the role of the microbiota

Xenobiotics are worldwide distributed and humans unavoidably exposed to multiple chemical compounds during life, from preconception adulthood. The human microbiota is mainly settled early life modulate host health fitness. One of the main routes for exposure by intake contaminated food water. Thus, interplay between diet-xenobiotics-microbiota pregnancy perinatal period may have relevant consequences infant adult health. Maternal metal(oid)s, persistent organic pollutants, some additives can modify infant’s with unknown child or Toxicants’ also maternal transfer microorganisms progeny birth breastfeeding; however, scarce information available. rapid increase in releasing novel chemicals environment, mixtures, chronic/low dose scenario, delay science-stakeholders action call groundbreaking approaches improve a comprehensive risk assessment sensitive population groups like pregnant women neonates, emphasis on as modulating factor target-organ xenobiotic’s toxicity.
