[Complete nutrition and social assistance]. / Vollwerternährung und Sozialhilfe.

Additional supplementary benefits for nutrition are provided by social legislation; they are based on recommendations which have to be reconsidered in general as regards contents and quantities. The practice of assessment by Public Health Offices has no standardized regulations. Surveys have indicated that the recommendations are based on low-price calculations. The fundamental basis of supplementary benefits cannot guarantee healthy nutrition and therefore ignores the aim of prevention which had originally been included in social legislation.
