Miscarriage Diet
The "right" kind of malnutrition apparently can cause a miscarriage | |
See the first link. Apparently a lot of miscarriages (but not
all of them) can be traced to an inadequate supply of
niacin (Vitamin B3) in the diet. The Recommended Daily
Allowance for niacin, for women, is about 14 milligrams
per day --I assume a pregnant woman would likely need
more than
that.
However, logically, for a woman who happens to be
pregnant but does not want to be pregnant, it could be a
lot cheaper to deliberately restrict niacin intake until a
miscarriage happens, than to obtain an abortion. Also, no
one who is against abortion would know for sure why the
miscarriage happened --such things quite naturally tend to
happen to about 1/6 of all confirmed pregnancies-- and
therefore the woman who chooses a Miscarriage Diet would
not be stigmatized.
Immediately after the miscarriage, of course, the woman
would want to restore a normal niacin intake in the diet
(and there are over-the-counter vitamin pills that can
quickly fill a deficiency). The third link describes what can
happen if a niacin deficiency persists for too long.

I know someone who tried something similar to this but it didn't work and she ended up having a termination instead. |

They will make miscarriages illegal |

From the title I expected a diet where people only ate miscarriages. |
