This artide reviews whether and how health daims on food products can influence eating behaviour in The Netherlands. At present, the research data on the possible influence of health daims on eating behaviour are Insuffident to be able to condude that this information does or does not have a significant impact on eating behaviour. Therefore, a model of behaviour change through education is used to analyse the possible effects of health daims on eating habits. Among the questions which arise are the following: who reads health daims, are health daims understood and under what conditions do health claims affect food choice? Based on the theoretical model it is conduded that, if daims have an effect on eating behaviour, this will probably be true for only a limited group of people. Several recommendations are made how to increase the potential effect of daims. It is conduded that experimental research should examine whether these recommendations indeed lead to a greater impact on eating behaviour. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
