A member asked:
What the affect of alcohol/drugs/smoking/poor diet are on fetal development?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too many to list: You basically build your baby using what you put into your body. If you consume toxic substances, baby will show the effect. If you avoid such materials the baby has a chance to grow to the full potential of their genetic abilities.Each of the materials has specific negative effects, & sadly, many ignore the issue anyway.
