BBC News also reported that Public Health England is reviewing the dietary advice conveyed in the “eatwell plate” – which is used across the UK for guidance on what food to eat.
Dr Alison Tedstone, the chief nutritionist at Public Health England, said there was no single silver-bullet solution.
“Government advice is to eat plenty of bread, rice, potatoes, pasta and other starchy foods, plenty of fruit and vegetables; and some milk and dairy products, meat, fish, eggs, beans and other sources of non-dairy protein.
“Foods high in salt, fat and sugar should be eaten less often and in small amounts. If you are currently overweight you will need to eat less to achieve a healthy weight and be active as part of a healthy lifestyle.”
