We’re particularly interested in hearing from parents in low- and middle-income countries where the rise in childhood obesity is steepest

This month, the Lancet published the world’s largest review on the health threats of ultra-processed foods (UPFs), showing that they are replacing fresh food on every continent and are exposing millions of people to long-term harm. Globally one in 10 children are considered obese, as junk food overwhelms childhood diets. Previous research has shown how susceptible children are to junk food advertising.

Parents and young people, are you concerned about the level of UPFs in your diet? Is it easy and affordable to find fresh food and eat healthily where you live? What changes do you think would help encourage healthy eating habits? We’re particularly interested in hearing from parents in low- and middle-income countries where the rise in childhood obesity is steepest.
