Population health impacts from the taxation of salt and sugar in the United Kingdom
Objective: To estimate the potential health benefits from the reduction in consumption of salt and sugar following the introduction of a proposed tax on salt and sugar in the United Kingdom (UK). Design: Epidemiological modelling study. Life table modelling was used to estimate the expected population health benefits from the reduction in consumption of salt and sugar for four scenarios, each reflecting different manufacturer and consumer respons…
An individual participant data meta-analysis investigating the mediating role of eating behavior traits in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-based weight management interventions
The impact of eating alone on food intake and everyday eating routines
Eating alone or with others played a role in participants' food intake, and seemed to influence aspects of the organisation of everyday eating routines rather than overall dietary healthiness or weight status. Our findings add to the previous body of research on commensality, eating alone, and health among the older population, providing insights into the development of future health policies and research
The impact of behavioural weight management interventions on eating behaviour traits in children with overweight or obesity
Ensuring Food Security Through Meal Optimization
Food security is of vital importance for human existence. Yet, global food production has huge environmental impacts which increasingly threaten food security. Today, food production occupies around 40% of all ice-free land surface, contributes about 25x0025; of all human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, and is the largest driver of deforestation. Moreover, it accounts for about 70% of the Earth’s freshwater withdrawals and is driving nitrogen a…
Potential health impact of increasing adoption of sustainable dietary practices in Sweden
If these practices were more widely adopted, they would be expected to lead to improvements in public health in Sweden. Over the long term, this would translate to many premature deaths postponed or prevented from a number of chronic diseases, to the benefit of individuals, society, the climate and the economy
The importance of school lunches to the overall dietary intake of children in Sweden
Objective: School lunches have potential to foster healthy diets in all children, but data on their importance are relatively scarce. The current study aimed to describe the dietary intake from school lunches by sex and school grade, and to assess how the daily intake, school lunch intake and the daily intake provided by lunch differ by sex and parental education. Design: Cross-sectional. All foods and drinks consumed for 1–3 weekdays were self-r…
Optimizing School Food Supply
There is great potential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) from public-sector meals. This paper aimed to develop a strategy for reducing GHGE in the Swedish school food supply while ensuring nutritional adequacy, affordability, and cultural acceptability. Amounts, prices and GHGE-values for all foods and drinks supplied to three schools over one year were gathered. The amounts were optimized by linear programming. Four nutritionally ad…
