RJRB 658 #1 Posted December 11, 2019 Loughborough University suggest that it would be more effective to label food with the amount of exercise required to work off the calories consumed. The example given was 1 mince pie = 25 minutes running! There’s going to be a few marathon runners if this takes off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lex Luthor 10 #8 Posted December 13, 2019 A far more effective solution to rising obesity levels would be for alcohol to have nutritional guides on like food and soft drinks do.
