I have no words to describe the terrifying findings of Food and Agriculture Organization's #SOFI2019: - #Hunger is rising, due to #conflict, #climatechange & economic slowdowns - #Overweight & #obesity continue to increase - 2 billion people don't have regular access to safe, nutritious, sufficient #food

Healthy foods are expensive compared to less-nutritious staples in developing countries โ€“ while unhealthy snack foods are growing cheaper, research by IFPRIโ€™s Derek Headey and Harold Alderman shows bit.ly/2LEqO9w. Paper here: doi.org/10.1093/jn/nxzโ€ฆ

Consumption of sugary drinks is increasing in many countries worldwide and is contributing to the global increase in #obesity, which increases the risk of many cancers. One of our #CancerPrevention Recommendations is to limit consumption of sugary drinks, and drink mostly water

This is huge! Mexico passes law to put warning labels on unhealthy food. A major win in the battle against #obesity, this shows whatโ€™s possible when thereโ€™s strong, well-organized advocacy to fight back against Big Food opposition.

Excellent publication on how ultra-processed foods are highly detrimental to the environment, as well as health. Food monocultures and commodification are the antithesis of where agriculture needs to head - agroecology. Find Ultra-Processed Planet at bit.ly/3iMkFqK
