Overview
Brief overview of the nutritional status of the UK, including sources of information.

Children and Adolescents• The latest official population data
for England, the National Child Measurement Programme 2012/13 (NCMP), estimates 22% of children in reception (aged 4-5 years) and 33% of children in year 6 (aged 10-11 years) are overweight or obese.
• In reception, 9% of children are estimated to be obese compared to 19% of children in year 6.

Proportion of boys and girls classed as being overweight or obese in England
One in five children aged 4-5 years in England are overweight or obese
Data source: National Child Measurement Programme 2012/13

Adults•The latest official population data, collected in 2012 by Public Health England, estimates 62% of adults in England (aged 16 and above) are overweight or obese, with 2.4% being severely obese.
•Men and women have a similar prevalence of obesity (25% men and 26% women) but men are more likely to be overweight (42% men and 32% women).
•A higher percentage of women are severely obese compared to men (1.5% men and 3.5% women).

Proportion of men and women classed as being overweight or obese in England
More than 6 out of 10 men in England are overweight or obese (66.5%)
More than 5 out of 10 women in England are overweight or obese (57.8%)

Sugars
Headlines based on evidence reviewed in SACN report:•higher consumption of sugars and sugars containing food is associated with a greater risk of tooth decay;•increasing or decreasing total energy (calorie) intake from sugars leads to a corresponding increase or decrease in energy intake;•consumption of sugars-sweetened drinks* results in greater weight gain and increases in BMI in children and adolescents;•greater consumption of sugars-sweetened drinks is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes.
© BRITISH NUTRITION FOUNDATION 2015
This led to the following recommendations:Average intake across the UK population of free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy intake for age groups from 2 years upwards;
The consumption of sugars-sweetened drinks should be minimised in children and adults.
© BRITISH NUTRITION FOUNDATION 2015
What are free sugars?All sugars added to foods by the manufacturer, cook or consumer, plus sugars naturally present in honey, syrups and unsweetened fruit juice.
What sugars do not count as free sugar?
Lactose (the sugar in milk) when naturally present in milk and milk products and the sugars contained within the cellular structure of foods (e.g. fruit and vegetables).

FibreFibre •SACN also recommended an increase in the population’s fibre intake to an average of 30g per day for adults.•For children, the recommended intakes are: 15g/day (age 2-5); 20g/day (age 5-11); 25g/day (age 11- 16); 30g/day (age 16-18). •The previous recommendation was equivalent to 23-24g/day AOAC fibre.
Why do we need to increase our fibre intake?Evidence from the SACN report indicated:•diets rich in fibre (cereal fibre and wholegrains) are associated with lower incidence of CVD, type 2 diabetes & colorectal cancer •diets rich in fibre decrease intestinal transit times and increase faecal mass.

Active learning cards 2015
BNF has launched these new active learning games to support healthy eating and nutrition in schools. They comprise:
•The eatwell plate - a blank version, perfect for placing foods into the correct food groups;•The meal planner - a blank planner for a day, showing breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks;•Food cards - 128 food cards (which show the name, image, energy provided and portion size of different foods).
© BRITISH NUTRITION FOUNDATION 2015
Menu planning
•Consider diet for the day – based on energy
•Use food cards to build diet – practice
•Compare against energy
•Compare to eatwell, 5 A Day, Drinks …
•Compare and contrast
•Cooking method

Recipe analysis•Review the recipe. Indicate the changes you would make to … reduce total fat and increase fibre content. •Annotate the recipe with your suggestions.
What changes can you make? What could you add/remove?Could the cooking method and/or portion size be changed?What advice would you give others?
Extension task•Explain the health benefits in reducing the total fat and increasing the fibre content of recipes.•Undertake nutritional analysis.

Energy density Which of the following would your rather eat?
Although the two desserts provide the same amount of energy, the one on the left has a much lower energy density than the one on the right.
By choosing foods with a lower energy density, this will help you to feel fuller without consuming too much energy.
Both desserts contain 215 calories

Need help with planning for KS3 and KS4?
How do you decide on what your students will make?
•Skills?•Knowledge?•Progression?•Because you or they like the recipe?
Learning objectives should be linked practical outcomes.
Do your recipes support knowledge, skill development and progression AND reflect the key nutrition messages?
