Pregnancy and parental health

The Discovery Pod: Episode 5

Welcome to The Discovery Pod, where we talk to leading experts from the University of Adelaide about solutions to society’s most pressing challenges. 

For the first time in modern history, children in developed countries may not live as long as their parents, due to diet-associated health problems like heart disease, stroke, and cancer. It’s a shocking prediction, and one which could be avoided, as we continue to discover more about pregnancy and parental health. So where we are going wrong and what we can do about it? 

Join us this episode to discuss Pregnancy and Parental Health with host Andy Lowe, Jodie Dodd (obstetrician and internationally recognised expert on mother’s and children’s health) and Alison Care (heart foundation future fellow, investigating pregnancy complications and health outcomes in children).
