Answers:
Biologist and author Sandra Steingraber, an interdisciplinary scholar at Ithaca College in upstate New York, spent a year reviewing the scientific literature on the subject!.

According to Steingraber, the main forces driving the acceleration of puberty are obesity and premature birth!. But she remains convinced that environmental exposure to chemicals, particularly endocrine disruptors, also may play a significant role!. And all the chemicals found in foods!.

At-risk behavior increases
Early puberty has received a lot of attention from medical researchers because it has been identified as a risk factor for breast cancer!. But as she delved into the subject, Steingraber found that girls who enter puberty early also are more likely to smoke, drink, abuse drugs, and have sex at a younger age!.
