Note (disponibile solo in inglese):HBSC Family Affluence Scale (FAS) - "HBSC uses an alternative measure, the Family Affluence Scale, which asks young people about material assets such as family cars, number of foreign holidays, computers, bathrooms and dishwashers in the household, holidays and having a bedroom to oneself. The scale, which enables users to add up how many of these assets a young person has in their home compared with other adolescents in their country/region, has been shown to provide a valid indicator of relative affluence."

School Fruit, Vegetables and Milk Scheme

"Applicable since 1 August 2017, the EU school fruit, vegetables and milk scheme combines two previous schemes (the school fruit and vegetables scheme and the school milk scheme) under a single legal framework for more efficiency and an enhanced focus on health and educational. The scheme supports the distribution of products, educational measures and information measures. The scheme supports the distribution of fruit, vegetables, milk and certain milk products to schoolchildren, from nursery to secondary school. EU countries approve a list of products (in collaboration with their health and nutrition authorities) which will help achieve the schemes objective of helping children to follow a healthy diet. Priority is for fresh fruit and vegetables and for plain milk. In order to support a varied diet and/or specific nutritional needs, EU countries may also make processed fruit and vegetables such as juices and soups and certain milk products such as yoghurt and cheese, available. Additionally, under stricter conditions, milk-based drinks may be included." - EU Commission

Unhealthy commercial marketing

"In June 2008, the government adopted a resolution on the development of guidelines for health-enhancing physical activity and nutrition. The main targets include reducing the prevalence of obesity and the intake of saturated fat, salt and sugar and increasing the intake of vegetables and fruit (particularly berries). As a part of this resolution, the government has set special development priorities for children, young people and families. According to these priorities, “Food marketed to children and young people should not be contradictory with health promotion message; if necessary, the state will create regulatory systems alongside corporate self-regulation that restrict marketing of unhealthy foods to children and young people and ensure efficient monitoring of the regulations” - WHO
