03 Jun 2019 --- UK residents would appreciate more access to professional dietary advice and support in order to follow healthier diets. The National and Diet Nutrition Survey from Public Health England (PHE) recently found that two-thirds of UK-based participants think that although general advice on healthy eating is clear, nearly 40 percent of respondents said they would appreciate access to a registered dietitian to help them meet their dietary goals. The survey also found that no age group actually meets its dietary recommendations. In response to this, the British Dietetic Association (BDA) is calling for the National Health Service UK (NHS) to provide more support so people eat healthily and minimize the burden of conditions that can be induced by poor nutrition.
