Public health and nutrition experts are calling for a national food strategy to fix our obesity epidemic.

The latest Healthy Food Environment report reveals 1/5 of preventable deaths are related to unhealthy diets.

At the same time, one in eight children live in households where there's not enough to eat.

Health Coalition Aotearoa Co-Chair Lisa Te Morenga told Francesca Rudkin Government hasn't made food safety a priority.

She says not much progress has been made since governments started monitoring the safety of our food supply 12 years ago.
