Urgent Actions mentioned are: - It is recommended to cultivate as many vegetables as possible around the home's backyard and feed them the children.

Although children can be fed properly with the resources God has provided, they must be properly nurtured and cared for as God’s Word tells us not to overeat. - Churches to educate parents on how to nurture their kids in kind...

- Legislation should be inspected for contradictions, e.g., avoiding companies dealing with UPF to access public subsidies/tax exemptions.

Notably, family businesses & SME are the guardians of local biodiversity, ancient recipes, know-how and histories, which are valuable natural and cultural assets that risk disappearing. - Portuguese gastronomy connected to the MD, ought to be better promoted. However, diets evolve, including the MD. Therefore, we have to be selective on what habits and foods to import. Awareness should be raised among whoever prepares food, about the need to avoid using UPFs, while understanding the reasons behind their usage. Is it due to a lack of qualified workers, low net profits, or both? - Improve territorial policies that encourage local food production and short value chains. Food systems have to be able to ensure the necessary food security of local people in the face of demand-side changes (e.g. too high prices and/or reduced availability of traditional foods, due to excessive tourism). - Price-driven changes in food habits are to avoid. In Portugal an important and growing part of the ingested calories are from UPF. Bottom-up (improved food literacy) and top-down (adequate regulatory framework) measures are needed. Leer menos
