Siyayinqoba Beat It! 2009 - Ep 2 Highlights pt 3

Wendy Kumalo introduces us to Hlengiwe Cele who talks about her nutritional needs as a pregnant woman. We then get to see one of the Treatment Literacy Practitioners educating people at the clinic about the importance of eating healthy, especially for pregnant women. A balanced diet is clearly explained with the need to eat from all three different foods groups. It is also vital that pregnant women know that they should only take medication provided at the clinic and not self medicate with any other drugs or traditional remedies, which can adversely affect their unborn child.
