Eating well makes richer

Children who don’t like to eat spinach or whole wheat bread, will never become rich. Because eating healthy is good for your finances. This is the conclusion of researchers at the International Food Policy Research Institute in Washington. They studied 4 poor villages in Guatemala. In the 1970’s 2 of those villages received development aid. Young children received a well balanced menu of grains, water, sugar, vanilla and fruits. In the other 2 villages the children had to eat what was available, which was not a lot. Thirty years later the children of the villages that had received aid earned twice as much as the the children who hadn’t eaten so well. The conclusion is that unhealthy food inhibits the mental development.
