@CarolWham Thanks for sharing. The overuse of supplements is interesting. What types? Multivitamins? Others?

@EUFIC @EarthDay @foeeurope @Green_Europe @WWF @UNEP_Europe @EU_ENV @GreenpeaceEU @BeeAsMarine @CANEurope @VSinkevicius What about eat less highly processed, nutrient poor foods?

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@GoodFoodInst @Starbucks @PerfectDayFoods Is there a nutritional profile available? Couldn’t see one at quick glance on the @PerfectDayFoods website. 🙏

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@JulietBlaxland @MunsterHuntster How does that even pass as food let alone bacon?

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@TyRBeal And therefore the same applies to health and nutrition claims - in my part of the world at least.

@CorinnaHawkes @BiteBack2030 Thanks for sharing! I look forward to reading it. There’s now a real blur between junk food and ‘core’ everyday food. I was caught out recently myself 😠

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@MaritKolby @TyRBeal There's not much research on "healthy" dietary patterns containing unprocessed meat either. The distinction between "healthy" and "unhealthy" plant-based diets is made, however.

@cobb808 @TheCountry @TheMusterShow @NZBeefLamb @FedFarmers @WoolsNZ Agree. We spent a great deal of time arguing with a carpet salesperson about this ... she was determined to sell us the synthetic option.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@FiWindle @OceanicNLP And a highly competent one at that! 😁

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@kati_pai @NZBeefLamb @juliajones110 @mikel_ee Agree on the need to measure outcomes and see if these connect with consumer benefits, including nutritional value. Should prevent meaningless claims.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@fleroy1974 And what happens if we shift to mostly plant proteins? Such an important nutrient for brain development, mood, energy levels …

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@fleroy1974 It has always intrigued me that a food rich in highly bioavailable nutrients that can't be as easily obtained from other foods, is considered in the same vein as the likes of sugar and salt.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@FiWindle @synapse101 @MikkiWilliden @juliannejtaylor Looking forward to seeing what develops from this important work.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@FiWindle @synapse101 @MikkiWilliden @juliannejtaylor I would add nutrient value and impact on health outcomes. Will adding vitamins and minerals to highly processed foods have a positive impact on health? Also need to consider the broader aspects of environmental impact - not just carbon emissions.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@pierrechandon And the impact on health will be .....?

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

@nickykylegarden @fleroy1974 Fascinating and terrifying - thanks for sharing.

[Jan Hales @hales_jan]

Plant based and healthy aren’t necessarily the same thing - this would be a positive move. #plantbased #nutrition #foodmarketing

Tesco urged to consider health impact as it extends plant-based target into Central Europe https://t.co/1PrbW2cNgs

@FiWindle @otago @Otago_Nutrition Sounds like an innovative opportunity to me! #nutrition #healthierfoodenvironments
