Public Health England has published its Eatwell Guide evidence report, From Plate to Guide: What, why and how for the eatwell model, specifying the approach taken and rationale behind the recent refresh of the Eatwell Guide. The report provides further detail on the independently commissioned linear modelling method which was used to inform the food group segment sizes, as well as the role of the external reference group and consumer research into the understanding of the Eatwell Guide.
