Putting good nutrition into practice

Abstract

Each of us is born with a stock of health, much of whose value depends on how well our mothers fed and conducted themselves during pregnancy. As we grow up we become progressively more responsible for our own nutritional status. Or do we? No man is an island and members of minority groups know how difficult it is to comply with dietary laws. Pressures by the rest of society to conform with its current dietary patterns are most effective. Moreover it is often difficult to find out just what is on the cafeteria plate or the proportions of the various foods in the package or tin can.
