Improve hospital food country-wide
Ensure that all food offered to patients is tasty and in line with health guidelines.
Five-a-day and wholegrain cereals with protein mainly from pulses.
Why is this important?
Most patients are in hospital due to lifestyle, so it is essential that provision of tasty basic real food, as recommended world-wide, is available at each meal to ensure quick recovery and release of patients with improved health guidance.
After operations and treatments it is essential that the digestive tract work correctly, and this is best maintained by correct eating, rather than laxatives.
Plenty of salads, vegetables, and vegetable soups with fruit and smoothies should be always available and encouraged.
Pastries and cakes should not be available. Denatured white flour, sugar and salt should be replaced by oats, treacle and dried fruits etc.
