Nutrition In The Womb By David Barker M.D

How better nutrition during development will prevent heart disease, diabetes and stroke.

New research has shown that malnutrition in the womb permanently changes the structure and function of the body. It leads to heart disease, diabetes and stroke in later life.

“Dr. David Barker’s ground breaking research has irrevocably influenced the way in which the medical and nutrition community now views optimal development.”

— Eileen Kennedy, Dean, Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, Tufts University

“Barker’s book gives us the unique opportunity to reexamine the role of nutrition throughout life, and place the emphasis where it really makes a difference, in early life. Good nutrition begins in the womb. It is time for this novel insight to make it into policy and practice.”

— Ricardo Uauy, President of the International Union of Nutritional Sciences

“History will show that David Barker’s discoveries changed the face of medicine.”

— Kent Thornburg, Director, Heart Research Center, Oregon Health and Science University

“We have been delighted to support this pivotal research.”

— Professor Sir Charles George, former Medical Director, British Heart Foundation
