"The prospective impact of food pricing on improving dietary consumption: A systematic review and meta-analysis,"

...is a study published on March 1, 2017.

And while I certainly hope they didn't spend too much money on something so seemingly obvious, it is good the info is "officially" out there. Bottomline: Subsidizing to close the dollars-and-cents gap between prices of healthy vs unhealthy food choices, could give people critical incentive that ultimately makes the difference in what they procure for their kitchens. Moving in the right direction? Actions like this could have a positive impact on our nation's overall health, over time.

Are you one who doesn't want government stepping in and making decisions for its citizens? Yeah, there is a fine line. But if shoppers don't know any better, if they aren't educated in nutrition, how can they do the best for themselves and their families? We have protective laws surrounding all sorts of interactive health issues. Eating affects the expression of our DNA. Foods act like light switches, turning off and on our genetic predispositions. Did you know that? It absolutely does matter what you eat.

Will this study impact your shopping list?
