A new report by The Future Laboratory in partnership with lifestyle recipe box service Green Chef, has revealed how our diests are set to change. 62% of Britons have made a change to their diet to get healthier over the past year.
The report, Diet & Nutrition Futures, explores exactly what this future will look with five diets that will define the UK’s diet and nutrition landscape. These include an increase in ‘Bluetrition’ nutrition – adopting diets frequently seen in super-ageing Blue Zone populations, from Sardinia and Okinawa through to Loma Linda and California.
Dietician Bari Stricoff said: "When it comes to longevity, Blue Zone locations immediately stand out. Whether Mediterranean or East Asian, it’s all about whole foods, primarily plant-based, diversity, low sugar, high fibre, good protein and an emphasis on healthy fats," she said. ‘In the UK, there’s so much processed food, and that’s the biggest barrier to adoption."
