New research adds to the evidence that everyday chemical exposures can shape children’s health before birth.

A recent study from researchers at the Center for the Investigation of Environmental Hazards at NYU Langone Health links prenatal exposure to certain phthalates—chemicals commonly found in plastics, food packaging, and personal care products—to millions of preterm births and thousands of infant deaths globally.

Children’s health starts long before birth. We need stronger policies that reduce harmful chemical exposures and put babies, families, and healthy environments first.
