Make sustainable and healthy food the easy choice, says the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors
Today, the EU Scientific Advice Mechanism (SAM) releases its evidence review report and policy recommendations on sustainable food consumption. Their work aims to support the preparation of the legislative framework for sustainable food systems and complement the Farm to Fork Strategy.

Eric Lambin, leader of the Topic Team of the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors (GCSA) on sustainable food consumption, said:

"The food we eat has major impacts both on our health and on our planet. Consumers should be supported in making healthy and sustainable food choices by a coherent combination of policies. Measures to make healthy and sustainable diets more affordable, to regulate product placement and advertising, and to mandate food reformulation should be used together with transparent information and education on food literacy."
