Five A Day Is Still Bollocks!



Loyal readers will recall that way back in December 2010 I wrote that Nanny's five a day advice was bollocks.

By happenstance Channel Four aired a Dispatches episode last night which highlighted how the food industry had highjacked the concept of five a day, in order to get us eating shit.:
"Dispatches investigates what's happened to the five-a-day campaign, which was designed to get us all eating more fruit and veg. Reporter Jane Moore reveals how this vital health message has been hijacked as a marketing tactic, and how the food industry uses the campaign to promote sugary, fatty, salty products like ready meals, soups and drinks. 

She also looks at confusion over what actually counts as a five-a-day portion and investigates whether the government is effectively regulating what the food industry tells us about the scheme."
Sadly the programme ignored the fundamental issue, namely that there is no scientific rationale for eating five a day in the first place.

    If I had the stomach for it, I'd eat 5 nannies a day until they're all gone

  2. Spot on - the real scandal is not that companies are distorting the message, but that the message is politically correct nonsense anyway. It has no more validity than the "alcohol health guidelines" and was effectively plucked out of thin air. But the media won't report that - the only scandals to them are those when not enough nannying is taking place.
