Eating to Live: Nutrition in Relation to Maternal and Child Welfare

on Regional Programme Northern Ireland

View in Radio Times

A discussion between two doctors.
Nutrition is in itself a vital topic. This discussion between two Ulster doctors, however, deals with it not merely as a matter of health, but as a matter of life or death for working mothers and their babies.
The doctors will speak frankly.
They will produce facts and figures to show how malnutrition is one of the principal causes of maternal and infant mortality, and that the death rate among babies fed artificially tends to be far higher than among babies fed naturally.
This discussion, which illuminates a vital health problem in Northern Ireland, will probably prove to be one of the most important contributions to the "Eating to Live" series.
