British Health Minister Alan Jonson has yet to detail the help the Executive has proposed to promote healthy eating in pregnant women, but for now we have knowledge of the plus that will receive future British moms to spend it eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
The provision of 120 pounds (about 176 euros) to be granted by the Government of the United Kingdom to pregnant women, will be effective from 2009, in addition to pretending to take care of food with an adequate intake of vegetables for the health of the baby, also It is intended to ensure that pregnant women stop drinking alcohol and smoking during pregnancy.
The economic issue also has a lot to do with this decision, according to the news, this aid represents an expense of about 70-80 million pounds a year, but the cost is multiplied by two if we talk about the cost of public health Treat chronic diseases such as diabetes. It seems that the project is not very well tied, because they claim that pregnant women who receive the benefit do not have to justify the purchase of fruits and vegetables as well as their food, so the money could be used even in tobacco or alcohol.
We do not know how to fit this news. One thing would be for the fruit to be more expensive than a bottle of alcohol or a packet of tobacco, and speaking of food, although prices have risen, they can still be bought. So how irresponsible have we become? How black does the government see it? Does everything work in exchange for money? Why are children given to those who do not deserve them?
