Show Notes
Today Rebeca Marquez talks about Latinx health and nutrition. Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) research tells us that a baby’s health is impacted by three generations of her/his family. This unique program doesn't blame mothers or families for their health but rather looks at social determinants including poverty, fear of deportation, unsafe neighborhoods as all factors in poor health. Abuela, Mama y Yo engages family in becoming advocates for thriving families and communities.
