Is There a Link Between The Environment And Disease?

A nationwide study is underway to determine if there is a link between environmental factors and disease. The study will follow 100,000 children from birth through age 21. Environmental exposures as well as the health and development of each child will be tracked. The study will be looking at environmental factors such as the foods they eat and the quality of the air they breath. The goal of the study is to link actual behaviors to the development of disease.
