Description

As Dr Deborah Pufal, course leader for the undergraduate nutrition degree programmes at Huddersfield university, says: “We all know fast food is high in calories, salt and fat. You can get your daily energy in one meal. The nutritional information is there if you choose to read it, or understand it; the problem in this country is that we are all aware we have got this obesity problem, but how many people change their behaviour as a result?”
