Kids are at a greater risk for some pesticides for a number of reasons. Kids's internal organs are still developing and maturing and their enzymatic, metabolic, and immune systems may supply less natural protection than those of an adult. There are critical periods in human development when exposure to a toxin can permanently alter the way an personal's biological system operates. Kids may be exposed more to certain pesticides because often they eat different foods than adults.
