The need for objective evaluation of the effectiveness of nutrition education is discussed. The impact of Department of Health and Social Security recommendations published in 1974 aimed at improving infant-feeding practices is assessed. Education was effective in increasing breast-feeding, but was less successful at improving other infant-feeding practices. Suggestions are made for the improvement of nutrition education in the context of infant feeding.
