What program users are saying

This program stands out among other materials with practical, easy to read steps.

This booklet is the best; it meets 100% of the practice's needs for nutrition.

Dairy Council of California materials are wonderful as they are not product-specific.

The new program is wonderful, specifically the color, the amount of information and the content.

Good reading level; easy to read; attractive layout and comprehensive.

Individualized booklets provide valuable information for the duration of the pregnancy - aids retention & follow through.

When people see that they can achieve healthy lifestyle and they can still eat the foods they like, a light bulb just got turned on. This pregnancy program turns that light bulb on!

You can almost see an immediate plan for a better and healthier diet when pregnant women go through the booklet.

Pregnancy booklet is very practical to use in a class situation because it facilitates discussion and the involvement of the pregnant women to improve her diet.
