NUTRITION AND FOOD CULTURE

Nutrition is integral to the development of the fetus and the health of the pregnant woman everywhere. This page explores how food culture interacts with pregnancy and the postpartum period.

This project is intended to provide insight into the similarities and differences in global customs as they relate to the health of pregnant people and infants. Further, it is intended to bring awareness to the changes in traditional medicine and habits in pregnancy and the postpartum following the widespread introduction of Western practices in medicinal, cultural, and political fields across the globe.
