Elaine Rush: AUT Nutrition Professor on families on the benefit being unable to afford healthy food

Calls for a national food strategy to be implemented in light of research showing it's virtually impossible for families on a benefit to afford healthy food.  Data shows two-children families receiving financial assistance would be $200 dollars short if they bought low-cost nutritional kai.  AUT Nutrition Professor Elaine Rush told Mike Hosking that feeding Kiwis well needs to be prioritised over sending it overseas.  She says we need to also think carefully about the food we import in large quantities, as most fail to promote healthy eating.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
