Nutrition- What you can do

Make healthy eating a lifestyle in your family

Start by making healthy choices at home and making healthy eating a lifestyle in your family. Parents can be good role models. You can advocate for change in your community, school and workplace. Mobilize your school or workplace to develop and adopt healthy food policies. Work with policy-makers and planners in your community to ensure everyone has access to healthy foods, and that access to unhealthy food is limited. The food and beverage industry can take greater responsibility for the nutritional content of the products it offers and promotes, and policy-makers have the power to make important decisions that affect people's opportunities to eat healthy foods.
