The strategy outlines tangible recommendations for evidence-informed structural policies that can support the UK population to achieve a healthier weight over the next ten years.

Reformulation
To secure strong lever such as targets and fiscal measures to incentivise the reformulation of unhealthy food and drink products, based on the success of the Soft Drinks Industry Levy.
Unhealthy Food & Drink Marketing
To phase out marketing of unhealthy food and drink products, after welcoming in a 9pm watershed on advertising on TV and a ban on paid-for advertising online.
Promotions
To restrict promotional tactics used to encourage excessive consumption of unhealthy food and drink products following on from limits on multi-buy and location based promotions.
