Nur durch Gesundheitsaufklärung kann "Fettleibigkeits-Krise" in Europa nicht gelöst werden [en] [fr]
Ein von der britischen University of Sussex veröffentlichte Studie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass eine bessere Gesundheitsaufklärung nicht ausreichen wird, um die Fettleibigkeit in Europa effektiv zu bekämpfen.
The study, conducted by the PorGrow research project, calls for "better provision of facilities for physical activity in schools and communities, radical changes to transport and planning policies, improved food labelling and tighter restrictions on advertising junk foods" to deal with rising obesity.
PorGrow's Professor Erik Millstone said that European governments need to make it much easier for citizens to have healthier diets and lifestyles. "A coherent set of government policies is needed, or the problem will only get worse."
