FSS is the only government body in Scotland which collects and publishes a robust national picture of trends in diet and nutrition through our monitoring of purchase and estimated consumer intake. Our team of expert registered public health nutritionists employs state of the art tools which digitalise the collection of data on the dietary intakes and purchases of consumers. This allows it to be analysed more effectively to report trends on the diet and health of the population.

Background
Public Health Nutrition Strategy
Our Public Health Nutrition Strategy formally sets out our revised approach to addressing our statutory objective to improving the diet of the population in Scotland.
We provide advice in relation to diet and nutrition, specifically on how we can help people in Scotland have healthier diets. So that we can provide robust evidence based guidance, we undertake research into a variety of topics relating to diet and nutrition.
