On this National Safe Food Day, we renew our calls for warning labels on processed foods to guide consumers towards healthy food choices. Processed foods are designed for maximising convenience for consumers, and profits for producers. They are not often designed prioritising health and human life. #FoodLabelsSaveLives

Processed foods, combine fats, sugar and salt, in unique combinations that are not normally found in natural foods. This stimulates our food cravings, causing us to over-indulge in those foods. Scientists are still trying to understand why these foods trigger the brain's desire to want more; but we do know for certain that processed foods are one of the primary drivers behind our current epidemic of non-communicable diseases. This is why we're asking for warning labels in front of processed foods.
