Public Inquiry wd probably find PHE Sugar Reduction programme was founded on SACN 2015 Carbs Report whose authors wrongly anticipated resistant starch breakthroughs.Big gamble, even bigger problem now. HFSS model needs to be ditched asap Health and Social Care Committee Steve Barclay Lord Bethell
Why was there no reference to PHE's sugar reduction policy which led to zero reduction in refined carb calories - just switched from sugars to modified starches. So where does the saving come from? House of Lords Food, Diet and Obesity Committee
DH saying that they are still going through the [42] responses to the 2018 NPM consultation with a view to updating HFSS model is not entirely accurate ☹️House of Lords Food, Diet and Obesity Committee
In 2025 when Food Marketing Regs are in place and the NHS Healthy Eating App remains unchanged - then the penny will drop that HFSS has been the biggest gift to the food industry in the last 20 years Anne Jenkin Natalie Bennett
How much did the failed 2016-2018 PHE Nutrient Profiling Model Review cost? Why has no-one asked why it was abandoned? How does Office for Health Improvement and Disparities meet Tameside Duty of Inquiry on basis for Food Advertising regulations - in case anyone else asks in court? Health and Social Care Committee Neil O'Brien MP
Fructose promotes leaky gut, endotoxemia and liver fibrosis - but SACN and Office for Health Improvement and Disparities say fructose is a healthy substitute for sucrose. Ministers should ask for a briefing Maggie Throup MP Steve Barclay ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Remember GB has approved health c!aim for replacing sucrose with fructose.. Why is Office for Health Improvement and Disparities position that fructose calories are healthier than sucrose calories and maltodextrin calories are healthier than sucrose calories? Perhaps House of Lords Food, Diet and Obesity Committee will get an answer?
Free fructose is a problem - scandal that SACN/ Office for Health Improvement and Disparities say fructose is not a concern - even though Nutrition Society said it was 'improper' of SACN to ignore the evidence on fructose Health and Social Care Committee

Clear water between BANT and others on free fructose. Difficult to accept UG medical students to be taught fructose not a nutrient of concern but Office for Health Improvement and Disparities Department of Health and Social Care happy with SACN's evidence-based position on this. Tut tut GMC to endorse that position jeccr.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
