Why not leave it up to parents to teach kids how to eat healthy? Because companies spend $2 billion/year on ads that directly change brain activity in children. Let’s make it a fair fight. Support #BillS228 and stop #Marketing2Kids

[Youth Against M2K @YouthAgainstM2K]

Thanks to everyone who is supporting #BillS228. We have already sent over 2800 letters to senators! Please continue showing your support for @HeartandStroke and stop #Marketing2Kids!

#DYK that about 1/3 of all food globally is lost and wasted?

What if rescued fruit and vegetables helped people improve their health? Join @WorldBank on April 10 and ask experts how to make that happen. https://t.co/9jwYSx1yzG #foodwaste

American children consume more than 30 gallons of sports drinks, #soda and fruit juice. Scientists call for #taxes and limits on marketing to children to curtail drinking #sugar. #BeatNCDs #obesity #diabetes https://t.co/sWTyr29Ykv

We applaud today’s @NDP policy announcement calling for a robust, publicly funded national pharmacare program. All people in Canada deserve equal and timely access to their prescription medicines within a system where the public payer is the first payer. #cdnpoli

Let’s pass #BillS228 and stop #Marketing2Kids! Read Trevor Hancock’s take here: https://t.co/OLM5lmFtXn
