When we talk about nutrition, we’re usually interested in what food can do for us in the next few weeks, months or years. But what someone eats today could influence the health of not only their children but their grandchildren.
Kimberley Wilson, a psychologist with a master’s degree in nutrition, looks back at the Dutch Hunger Winter of 1944-45 and how it has revealed a fascinating insight into the surprising generational impact of poor nutrition.
