3. This imbalance is driving poor health in society The promotion of a balanced, nutrient dense diet, and an improvement in the quality and variety of the diet would contribute to better health and reduce the risk of nutrition-related ill-health and disease. Important to remember that meat and dairy foods are good sources of many of the nutrients that are deficient in the UK diet so simply cutting down may make our diets even more deficient. We need to swap for nutrient dense alternatives
