(3/x) Our #FoodEnvironment promotes eating behaviours that are unhealthy & worsen #health inequities. Ideally the cause of a health problem should drive interventions that address that cause. But in the case of overconsumption & poor #diets, we traditionally failed to do so… doi.org/10.1038/s430...
(2/x) Eating nutritious #diets is almost impossible for most, as people are constantly surrounded by cheap, calorie-dense, salty, fatty, sugary and cleverly advertised foods & drinks. Our current #FoodEnvironment (the availability, quality, cost & #marketing of foods) … doi.org/10.1038/s430...
