[QUOTE="holwellcourtfarm, post: 3691700, member: 42914"] Good on you for helping. Dad had been part of a big medical cohort study for about 10 years now. It turns out that Hertfordshire had a unique medical history for kids born in the 1930's and 40's. All down to one health visitor who kept comprehensive records on how the youngsters she saw were actually looked after (how well fed, activity levels, parental history, issues in pregnancy etc). Researchers at Southampton came across this data and have been looking into the effect of parental health, nutrition in the womb and early years nutrition on long term health. They are discovering ground breaking links from it. Once a year he, and all the others of his age still kicking, get a free taxi ride to Southampton University Hospital where they get a FULL workout and checkup (fitness workup, full blood assay, MRI scans, bone density test etc, etc). They asked last year if any of their offspring would be prepared to take part so I agreed. I haven't been called as yet but expect to do so. Who'd have thought that your parents health before you were even conceived would influence your health for life? [/QUOTE]
