Even before your baby takes their first breath, they can be exposed to the world’s toxic burden. Heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium don’t just stay in mom’s body, many can cross the placenta and enter the fetus through the umbilical cord during pregnancy. One study measuring heavy metals in maternal and cord blood found significant correlations between mothers’ levels and their babies’ cord blood levels, showing that these toxic metals can move freely across the human placenta and reach the developing baby. 

This means what mom is exposed to, from the environment, food, or pollution can also reach baby before birth, potentially affecting early development.
