British Nutrition Foundation

During the last ten years the volume of dietary information directed at consumers has increased dramatically. The British Nutrition Foundation (BNF) has become increasingly concerned that the avalanche of sometimes conflicting information is outstripping the ability of many consumers to use it effectively or even comprehend it, and believes that more emphasis should be placed on education rather than information.The Foundation believes that it is vital to begin education in food and nutrition at school, and that all pupils should receive tuition in this multifaceted subject throughout their school careers.
