The impact of fiscal food policies on the macro-economy
The UK government announced the ‘Soft Drinks Industry Levy’ (SDIL), a tiered tax on sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), in 2016 and implemented the tax in 2018. Traditional economic assessments of SSB tax interventions focus on assessing healthcare cost implications using the standard Cost-of-Illness methodology. No studies have so far attempted to apply macroeconomic assessment methods to assess net macroeconomic impacts of SSB taxes, including an…
“It does help but there's a limit …”
Our findings suggest that although young people find management zones acceptable and believe they have some positive impact on diet, they did not perceive management zones as effective as they could be. Participants articulated that the management of takeaways on their own is unlikely to reduce exposure to unhealthy foods. Widening the remit of planning policy to include outlets selling convenience foods may be important for policy optimisation
Changes in the number of new takeaway food outlets associated with adoption of management zones around schools
By the end of 2017, 35 local authorities (LAs) across England had adopted takeaway management zones (or "exclusion zones") around schools as a means to curb proliferation of new takeaways. In this nationwide, natural experimental study, we evaluated the impact of management zones on takeaway retail, including unintended displacement of takeaways to areas immediately beyond management zones, and impacts on chain fast-food outlets. We used uncontro…
Estimated changes in free sugar consumption one year after the UK soft drinks industry levy came into force
BACKGROUND: The UK soft drinks industry levy (SDIL) was announced in March 2016 and implemented in April 2018, encouraging manufacturers to reduce the sugar content of soft drinks. This is the first study to investigate changes in individual-level consumption of free sugars in relation to the SDIL. METHODS: We used controlled interrupted time series (2011-2019) to explore changes in the consumption of free sugars in the whole diet and from soft d…
Vaccine Confidence and Hesitancy at the Start of Covid-19 Vaccine Deployment in the UK
Background: Approval for the use of COVID-19 vaccines has been granted in a number of countries but there are concerns that vaccine uptake may be low amongst certain groups. Methods: This study used a mixed methods approach based on online survey and an embedded quantitative/qualitative design to explore perceptions and attitudes that were associated with intention to either accept or refuse offers of vaccination in different demographic groups d…
Behavioral Change Towards Reduced Intensity Physical Activity Is Disproportionately Prevalent Among Adults With Serious Health Issues or Self-Perception of High Risk During the UK Covid-19 Lockdown
Objectives: We assessed whether lockdown had a disproportionate impact on physical activity behaviour in groups who were, or who perceived themselves to be, at heightened risk from COVID-19. Methods Physical activity intensity (none, mild, moderate or vigorous) before and during the UK COVID-19 lockdown was self-reported by 9,190 adults between 2020-04-06 and 2020-04-22. Physician-diagnosed health conditions and topic composition of open-ended te…
Cultural Engagement Is a Risk-Reducing Factor for Frailty Incidence and Progression
Older adults who engaged in cultural activities every few months or more had a reduced risk of becoming frail and a slower progression of frailty over time. Findings are in line with current calls for multimodal, multifactor, community approaches to support health in older age
Volunteering is associated with increased survival in able-bodied participants of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing
BACKGROUND: Volunteering has been linked to reduced mortality in older adults, but the mechanisms explaining this effect remain unclear. This study investigated whether volunteering is associated with increased survival in participants of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing and whether differences in survival are modified by functional disabilities. METHODS: A multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards model was used to estimate the association o…
