The present study summarizes the advances on the knowledge of the health disturbances associated to fetal exposure to organochlorine compounds in a cohort of children from Menorca. Higher incidence of diverse deleterious health effects at 4 years of age have been observed, e.g. hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and poor social behavior and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, 4,4’-DDE and asthma, wheeze, lower respiratory tract infections and alteration of urinary coproporphyrins, HCB, ß-hexachlorocyclohexane and 4,4’-DDE and alteration of thyroid hormones, HCB, 4,4’-DDE and polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) and overweight, 4,4’-DDT and PCBs and lower neurodevelopment. A protective effect of breastfeeding against decreases of cognitive skills in children due to 4,4’-DDT exposure has also been documented. This protective effect shows that other factors besides pollutant exposure and genetic variability influence on the health effects of environmental pollutants into human populations. These results are important for the understanding of the health implications of exposome studies
