New M&S Food 'Eat Well Play Well' report reveals 80% of people in Northern Ireland feel they have an unhealthy relationship with food
M&S Food has teamed up with the Northern Ireland senior men’s team manager and two of Northern Ireland’s footballing heroes to launch a new healthy eating campaign aimed at tackling poor eating habits in 'our wee country'.
“The new report by M&S Food highlights that families in Northern Ireland face so many challenges when it comes to making healthy choices, such as busy schedules, convenience foods and conflicting information that can make it difficult to prioritise nutrition," O’Neill said. Former senior men’s team captain Hughes agreed saying: "When I was growing up all I wanted to do was play football, however I knew diet and nutrition was important if I wanted to give my best on the field. At the end of the day food is fuel for your body and you have to make the right choices to perform at your optimum level.
“Planning meals ahead of time is really important when trying to make healthy meals, however education is also crucial. If you don’t know what constitutes a balanced diet, it’s hard to maintain, so I plan to pass on what I’ve learned about nutrition to my young son as he grows and tries new foods.” People in Northern Ireland find it hardest to eat well in the evening, with dinner and evening snacks the most common periods in which people consume unhealthy food.
