Food Policy in the United Kingdom An Introduction

Food Policy in the United Kingdom An Introduction

This book provides an introduction to food policy in the United Kingdom examining policy development implementation influences and current issues. The book begins by providing a wide-ranging introduction to food policy in the UK situating it within wider global debates and establishing key drivers such as issues related to global citizenship trade and finance. The use of food control as a policy lever is also discussed and contrasted with alternative approaches based on behaviour change. The book presents an overview of the history of UK food policy from which there is much to be learned before moving onto current challenges posed by political instability both at home and abroad global pandemics and cost of living crises. Foremost is the need to manage public health including both malnutrition and obesity while promoting sustainable and healthy diets as well as the broader issues around addressing food security and food poverty. The book also examines public sector food initiatives such as school food and early childhood provisions and food regulation. As a part of food regulation chapters examine food scares and food fraud from chalk in flour to horsegate. The role of media marketing and advertising is also considered within a policy perspective. Taking a wider lens the book also discusses the impact of global food trade and the financialisation of food on food policy in the UK and vice versa. The book is supported by instructor eResources on the Routledge website designed to support student learning as well as provide regular updates on UK food policy developments. The eResources include student activities group exercises and links to further reading and additional resources. This book serves as a key introduction to UK food and agricultural policy for students scholars policymakers and professionals as well as those interested in food systems public health and social policy more widely. | Food Policy in the United Kingdom An Introduction

Local Food Environments Food Access in America

In this book Morland Lehmann and Karpyn discuss the critical need for healthy food financing programs as a vehicle to improve food access for all Americans. In my career as a public servant there are very few legislative achievements that I’m prouder of than the Healthy Food Financing Initiative which started in my home state of Pennsylvania. The program gained status as a proven and economically sustainable federal program that is helping to improve the quality of life in our neighborhoods: by allowing millions access to healthy affordable food. – Congressman Dwight Evans United States House of Representatives Pennsylvania District 3 If we work together we can create a healthy food system that is equitable and accessible to all. This book highlights the importance of healthy food projects like grocery stores farmers markets co-ops and other healthy food retail in revitalizing local communities across the country. Without basic nourishment kids and families simply won’t be successful – which is why this book is a must read. – Sam Kass President Obama’s Senior Nutrition Policy Advisor and Executive Director of Let’s Move! Morland and colleagues’ new second edition provides an excellent foundation for courses in food policy and community nutrition. Their detailed review of the economics of local and national food financing will open students’ minds to the complexity inherent in measuring and interpreting outcomes. – Robert S. Lawrence MD MACP Founder and Former Director of the Center for a Livable Future Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Features ● Describes how disparities in food access formed in the United States      ● Includes federal policies and programs aimed at addressing food access in underserved areas including the Healthy Food Financing Initiative     ● Features examples of state initiatives that address poor access to food retailers     ● Provides methods for program evaluation utilizing principals of implementation and dissemination science     ● Includes critical thinking questions and embedded videos aimed to generate discussions on how restricted local food environments in the United States are rooted in economic disparities that impact food access as well as housing education and job opportunities      | Local Food Environments Food Access in America

Food and Nutrition Sustainable food and health systems

Food-how we produce prepare share and consume it-is fundamental to our wellbeing. It also connects the human body to the complex and dynamic systems of our environment. This is more significant than ever before in human history as climate change and increasing population impact on global ecosystems. This fourth edition of Food and Nutrition has been completely rewritten to reflect an ecosystems approach to human health. It is shaped around four dimensions of human nutrition: biology society environment and economy. Food and Nutrition provides a comprehensive overview of food components and the biochemistry of foods and digestion. It outlines nutrition needs at different life stages dietary disorders and social and cultural influences on food selection and consumption. It also explores the increasing influence of technology on agriculture and food preparation and recent research into intergenerational nutrition and nutrigenomics. At every stage it points to how you can impact your own health and the health of others as a global citizen and as a health or other food-system-related professional. Extensively illustrated with informative graphs diagrams and data and with examples glossaries and reflective exercises Food and Nutrition is the ideal introduction to the field of nutrition and dietetics for the 21st century and a valuable professional reference for early career dietitians. | Food and Nutrition Sustainable food and health systems
