Human beings are adapted to a diet of naturally-occurring fruit, vegetables and animals. Extensive research and common sense tells us that we are healthier and happier if we eat the food that our bodies are suited to rather than highly processed food full of sugar, salt, hormones and additives. It is the responsibility of every individual to make choices about what they eat. However, we are not living as hunter-gatherers. We live in a highly industrialised complex society in which our food is provided by the food industry. Many of us are struggling to eat healthily given the options available. Manufactured food is designed to exploit our taste for fatty, sugary, salty rich food. For the sake of our health and economy, we must make healthy, natural and nutritious food easily available, affordable and tasty. It is a responsibility of government to use regulation and tax to ensure that companies are strongly incentivised to meet the need for cheap, easily accessible, convenient, highly nutritious and tasty food. There should be high taxes on unhealthy foods and tax incentives for healthy food. The food industry must be held accountable for knowingly promoting diets that are harmful both to our health and our economy. We need to use our gut instinct and common sense to guide us as to what our bodies really need to eat to keep us healthy. The challenge is to resist temptation.
