Women who diet excessively in the years before becoming pregnant could be harming their babies' health in later life according to a new study. Researchers at Southampton University have revealed that women who diet for long periods and to excess in the run up to pregnancy may risk the baby's health, despite adopting healthy eating patterns during the nine months. Professor David Barker, who led the research, says the conditions in the foetus are more important factors in the risk of heart disease, diabetes and strokes than genetics and lifestyle. Addressing the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology's annual conference in Lausanne, Barker said: It's the mother's whole life that counts. Not just what she eats during pregnancy.
