The UK needs a new tax on salt and sugar to win the battle against obesity, heart disease, diabetes and cancer, a campaign group has said. The move would prevent 2million preventable cases of the diseases over the next 25 years, according to a coalition of health bodies. It would also slash the number of obese Brits by a tenth and raise £3billion a year, which should fund healthy eating programmes, Recipe for Change said. Charities behind the group claim a new food taxing regime is needed to help Brits lose weight 'in a food environment that is rigged against them'. Britain needs a new tax on salt and sugar in food to win the battle against obesity, heart disease, diabetes and cancer , a campaign group of charities says This chart shows the percentage of people in England who are overweight (pink), obese (red) and morbidly obese (deep red) Recipe for Change, a coalition of health charities that has the backing of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health and Royal Society for Public Health, made the call in a report. They hope to pressure the Government to go further on tackling obesity — an issue which costs the NHS an estimated £6.5billion each year. In their report the coalition suggest two options for salt and sugar levies. One is a flat charge of £3 per kg of sugar and £6kg of salt in foods, with an exception being made for pure versions of these ingredients to avoid taxing home cooks. Such measures were proposed by former Government food adviser and co-founder of the Leon restaurant chain Henry Dimbleby to help combat Britain's obesity crisis.
