Foetal Programming
Edit

Foetal programming is a theory that suggests that the environment of the foetus during development affects their disease risk later in life. The three main routes of this programming are through maternal environment causing: These maternal environmental changes can be through nutritional changes, hormonal changes or exposure to toxins.
