Is the message getting through? Nutritional knowledge of pregnant women in Edinburgh and London.
This paper reports the results of a survey in which pregnant women in London and Edinburgh were asked about their knowledge and understanding of the recent recommendations of expert committees (James, 1983; DHSS, 1984). In general, Londoners had a better understanding, although in both regions manual groups were less knowledgeable, with the Edinburgh manual group the least well informed.
