Pleased to share our new paper which found that exposure to HFSS marketing through traditional formats (e.g. broadcast & print) was associated with greater household purchases of energy (9779kcal), protein (416g), carbohydrate(1164g) and sugar (514g) over a four week period.
Additionally, individuals who reported exposure to advertising for sugary drinks were more likely to purchase sugar-sweetened beverages over the four week period🧃

📜New Paper!
We found that foods higher in energy density were associated with greater energy intake at a meal and over a full day regardless of familiarity. Findings suggest that reformulation may be an effective approach to reducing energy intake🍕

📢 our latest paper: food marketing exposures associated with hunger and craving in adults, largely category specific (fast food ads -> fast food craving). Nice to use EMA in this space too, a useful tool for real world assessments.
