Our Soc Sci & Medicine paper on the implementation of the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan TfL policy restricting #HFSS advertising is now out! Policy is highly feasible, but we offer suggestions for LAs to help navigate implementation challenges Claire Thompson NIHR SPHR sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Fascinating study about implementing an upstream policy to improve dietary health and overcoming all the obstacles and challenges that come with it

If you ever wondered about price elasticities of demand for food and drink in out-of-home settings, this is the paper! 🍔 🥤 🍫 🍛

Children drink more #SSBs if parents do. Patterns of beverage consumption are strongly linked within households. New paper led by Charlotte O'Leary with @ProfRichSmith and Steven Cummins from Population Health Innovation Lab cup.org/3uihOfw

In our exciting new paper 🪘 published today in PLOS Medicine we find the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan TfL ban on #junkfood advertising reduces average household purchases of energy from HFSS grocery products by 1,001 kcal per week 🧵1/12 journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/a…

If true, this govt will deliberately and actively undermine the nation's health. Repeal of the SDIL, a policy that has drastically cut sugar/calories from SSBs is pure folly. Senior OHID officials must resist. Truss could scrap anti-obesity strategy theguardian.com/politics/2022/…

Great work by Toby Watt from Population Health Innovation Lab challenging the view that only “multi-buys” are problematic when it comes to price promotions and #HFSS
