You may have seen the fun and colourful ads on UK TV and in the press urging us all to make a Change4Life. So what’s it all about?
The stressed out pace of modern-day living can mean that convenience and fast foods become preferred choices for many. And combined with the fact we are a lot less active than we used to be means that 9 out of 10 kids today could grow up with dangerous amounts of fat in their bodies. This can cause life-threatening diseases like cancer, type-2 diabetes and heart disease. So it’s critical that we all take steps now to do something about it.
