Beginning with conception and continuing through childhood and adolescence, the word “strength” connotes the totality of optimal early bone and tissue growth; neural wiring of the brain; and acquisition of fine motor, gross motor, language, and socioemotional skills. The robustness of each of these attributes depend on 3 critical epigenetic (external) factors: the quality of nutrition; positive adult nurturing; and experiences acquired within a stimulating, safe environment that affords free exploration. This review highlights the relationship between the epigenetic factors in the period of conception to age 2 years and a child’s future health, cognitive capacity, and social aptitude, which collectively comprise their “strength”. This paper was presented as part of the 2018 Strength Summit conference entitled, The Role of Strength in Optimal Health and Well-being. Novelty Strength in infants signifies the totality of optimal early growth and neural wiring of the brain. Strength at this life stage also includes the acquisition of motor, language, and socioemotional skills. Three epigenetic factors are critical during birth to 24 months: nutrition, nurturing, and free exploration.

从受孕开始，一直持续到儿童期和青春期，“力量”一词表示最佳的早期骨骼和组织生长的整体。大脑的神经连接；并掌握精细运动，大运动，语言和社交情感技能。这些属性中每个属性的鲁棒性取决于3个关键的表观遗传（外部）因素：营养质量；积极的成人养育；和在刺激，安全的环境中获得的经验，可以免费进行探索。这篇综述强调了从受孕到2岁的表观遗传因素与孩子未来的健康状况，认知能力和社交能力之间的关系，这些因素共同构成了它们的“强度”。该论文是2018年强度峰会的一部分，标题为 力量在最佳健康和幸福中的作用。婴儿的新奇强度代表了最佳的早期成长和大脑神经连接的整体。这个生命阶段的力量还包括运动，语言和社会情感技能的获得。在出生至24个月内，三个表观遗传因素至关重要：营养，营养和自由探索。
