Update: 2024-09-02
Description
In episode 10, proposed regulations about front-of-package labelling are discussed by public health legal and policy researcher Petronell Kruger and the programme manager of Heala, Nzama Mbalati, to understand why the labelling of ultra-processed foods would help stem the rise of non-communicable diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure — major causes of death globally and locally. Maverick Citizen Managing Editor Zukiswa Pikoli asks what demographic is at risk of eating Ultra Processed Foods (UPFs) and who needs the new regulations the most.
