The MEND Programme: Healthy lifestyles for the whole family Dr. Gordon MacMillan

School-based policies have delivered limited results: Majority of primary school pupils bring crisps, sweets or chocolate into school to eat during break. Decline in school meal take up. Primary 7 pupils display less healthy eating behaviour than younger children. Source: Glasgow Centre for Population Health 2007

Figure 17.2 Work place counselling – body mass index (BMI [kg/m 2 ]) over time Figure 17.4 Whole school approach – body mass index (BMI [kg/m 2 ]) over time Figure 17.3 Counselling by primary care staff – body mass index (BMI [kg/m 2 ]) over time Figure 17.5 Family-based interventions, BMI over time Effectiveness of different programme types Only family-based interventions have a significant effect on BMI, which is sustained over time (NICE, Obesity, Full Guidance December 2006)

Rates of child obesity continue to rise

Parents have most influence over child health Socio-economic status. Breastfeeding. Patterns of sedentary / active behaviour. Structure of mealtimes. Attitudes towards foods.

Schools can engage with parents & help them to: Offer children healthy, balanced diets. Select and prepare food with children. Manage food in the home. Encourage and reward active lifestyles. Instill positive attitudes towards healthy foods.

And food service providers can support children to: Manage stimuli to eat. Withstand peer pressure. Distinguish between healthy and unhealthy diets. Understand food labeling. Get involved in the selection & preparation of food. Adopt healthy lifestyles.

Components of an effective response to child obesity: Involves parents and children. Informal, engaging and fun. Empowers parents and children. Community based. Founded on robust clinical evidence. Delivers measured health & social outcomes.
