Flame retardant chemicals linked to lower IQ in children: Study

Mothers-to-be, take note! flame retardant chemicals - commonly used in furniture and household products - may damage your child’s intelligence and cause loss of IQ points.

Researchers from the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) have conducted the largest meta-analysis performed on flame retardants to date, and found strong evidence of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) effect on children’s intelligence.

They examined data from studies around the world, covering nearly 3,000 mother-child pairs. They discovered that every 10-fold increase in a moms PBDE levels led to a drop of 3.7 IQ points in her child.

The study was published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.

"A 3.7-point decrease in IQ might not sound like a lot, but on a population-wide level it means more children who need early interventions and families who may face personal and economic burdens for the rest of their lives," said Juleen Lam, associate research scientist at UCSF.

Many people are exposed to high levels of PBDEs, and the more PBDEs a pregnant woman is exposed to, the lower her child’s IQ," said Tracey Woodruff, professor at UCSF.
