Serving up a Healthy Lifestyle

Read session reportHealthy eating is trending. Today, there are more celebrity chefs, organics and healthy food home delivery startups then ever before.
But the UK spends £47 billion on obesity and overweight related issues – that’s more than is spent on war, terrorism and violence. Alarmingly in the UK, by the age of five years old, one in five children are obese or overweight. By age 11, it has increased to one in three.
What is the media doing to help advance this growing trend? Could there be a ‘Peppa Pig’ hit show that moves the dial for healthy eating?
