While the government seeks to implement a basket of goods at cheaper prices, health officials on the other hand want to ensure there is a basket of healthy foods for the population.
That’s according to Acting Chief Medical Officer Dr. Ronald Georges who spoke recently on the Eat Well Guide which was launched a few weeks ago.
Dr. Georges stated that the guide provides the baseline on which a number of programmes will be built.
The Acting Chief Medical Officer believes it takes a whole of society approach to get persons to eat healthy, and the Eat Well Guide is just one component.
