Summary

This study aims to assess the effects of a new approach to food labelling called physical activity calorie equivalent (PACE) labelling. PACE food labelling provides the public with information about how many minutes (or miles/kilometres) of physical activity (e.g. walking or running) are equivalent to the calories contained in foods.

Conditions

  • Eating Behaviour of Discretionary Foods
  • Cognitive Restraint of Eating
  • Physical Activity
  • Body Weight

Interventions
