There is extensive information in Weston Price's Nutrition & Physical Degeneration (1938) about the nutritional requirements for pregnant (& planning to conceive) woman. The isolated & partly modernized groups he visited & studied in various parts of the world had such knowledge & wisdom & generally excellent physical health that was largely a result of having access to real (not poisoned) food. Pregnant women were fed certain foods they knew would nourish both the mother & baby, but they also knew what was needed for those planning to conceive. So much wisdom lost. Although a few of the conclusions & ideas in the book, especially in regards to juvenile deliquency & mental retardation may be laughed at now, this is a book that is well worth including in any studies or courses offered today.
