Healthy and sustainable diets that meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and are affordable for different income groups in the UK

Abstract: ObjectiveTo model dietary changes required to shift the UK population to diets that meet dietary recommendations for health, have lower greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) and are affordable for different income groups.DesignLinear programming was used to create diets that meet dietary requirements for health and reduced GHGE (57 and 80 % targets) by income quintile, taking account of food budgets and foods currently purchased, thereby keeping dietary change to a minimum.Setting/ParticipantsNutrient composition, G… Show more

“…Globally, two studies from United Kingdom have determined the cost of a healthy and sustainable diet and compared it to the typical diet consumed in that country (both nding there was no cost increase to follow a healthy and sustainable diet). 65,66 Since the present study was completed, other research on the affordability of the PHD throughout the world has since been published, nding that the PHD was affordable for high-income countries such as Australia, but unaffordable for low-income countries. 67 The aims of this study were to: (a) Determine the affordability of the PHD food basket for low, middle and high socio-economic groups in metropolitan Australia; (b) Determine if the PHD food basket is more or less affordable than the Typical Australian Diet (TAD) food basket for low, middle and high socio-economic groups in metropolitan Australia.…”

“…The measurement of Food waste and loss is becoming standardised, thanks to the creation of the food loss and waste accounting and reporting standard [75] and the Food Waste Atlas [76,77]. However, there is a lack of product-specific information due to a variety of factors, including the cost and time intensity of survey methods [19,78], with differences of up to 40% being returned by different measurement methods [79,80].…”

“…One important dimension of sustainability which is not included in this paper or previous frameworks is "health". While the authors recognise that, in order for a diet to be sustainable, it must be healthy (see [19,21]), we also recognise the complexities surrounding the measurement and quantification of a healthy diet. The majority of evidence linking meat intake with diseases comes from observational studies which, while useful sources of information, can have problems with errors in epidemiology such as confounding bias relative to randomised controlled trials [22,23].…”
