Supervisor: Professor N. McLaughlin NUMBER OF PAGES: xii, 254 iii Ph.D. thesis - Maja Jovanovic; McMaster University - Sociology Abstract Food and the various aspects surrounding what we eat, what we should eat, and concerns about how to remain healthy and ward off disease and illness is escalating while our choices are endless. In this competitive food market a new type has emerged: the functional food. Functional foods are those that have an added health benefit beyond the basic nutritional content and display physiological benefits in reducing chronic diseases. A popular category of functional foods are those that purport to lower one's cholesterol. In particular, high cholesterol is marketed as a "disease" rather than a risk factor for various cardiovascular diseases, such as heart disease. Little is known about

As the leading cause of death and hospitalizations among Canadians, cardiovascular disease is a huge health burden, and, at an annual cost of more than $22 billion, treating those who suffer from it is a major strain on our economy and governments. Fortunately, as this Strategy explains, we have a major opportunity to prevent premature cardiovascular disease, and, for those who do develop heart disease and stroke, there are means to markedly limit personal suffering. Importantly, doing what we know to prevent cardiovascular disease will also impact favourably on other chronic diseases that share common risk factors. The Government of Canada requested this Strategy in October 2006, and our 29-member Steering Committee worked diligently to propose six key recommendations to make Canada a heart healthy nation.

  • Blurring the Boundaries Chapter 2 PROMOTION TARGETING
    Blurring the Boundaries Chapter 2 by Barbara Mintzes PROMOTION TARGETING PRESCRIBERS SALES REPRESENTATIVES The salaries of sales representatives remain the largest single marketing expenditure of pharmaceutical companies. A June 1997 article in Scrip Magazine states that, "sales and marketing expenditure for a typical brand-based company represents an estimated 35% of sales, roughly 20% in salesforce and 15% in advertising, promotion and other marketing expenses."(131) What sort of information do sales representatives supply to doctors? In 1997 Joel Lexchin reviewed English language studies carried out between 1966 and 1996.(132) A computerized literature search and bibliographic review revealed only three studies, from Finland, the US, and an unpublished M.Sc. thesis from Australia. Additionally, a French drug bulletin, La revue Prescrire, has monitored sales representatives' presentations from 1991 to 1998 via an anonymous doctors network.(133) The results were consistent over time and in all four countries: sales representatives almost always stated the indications and the drug's brand and generic name, but usually failed to include safety information such as side effects and contraindications and many statements contained inaccuracies. In other words, there was a lack of balance in the information provided, with a greater emphasis on the drugs' benefits and inadequate information on risks. These studies are limited, but are supported by research from Belgium, the UK, and the US which has shown a consistent association between doctors' reliance on the information provided by detailers and inappropriate prescribing.(134) In Australia, Libby Roughead recorded 16 sales representative presentations to GPs, involving 64 drugs in total, after obtaining consent from both the representative and the doctor.

  • Hieke Et Al Table 1
    Hieke et al.; i-xxxviii; European Journal of Nutrition & Food Safety, Supplementary material Table 1. Country differences – Health claims Country Country differences – Health claims Austria In 1975, Austria introduced the “Lebensmittelgesetz” (LMG, federal law on trade in foodstuff) and made it mandatory to approve claims regarding correctness and appropriateness. Any claim attempting to mislead consumers was prohibited. When joining the European Union in 1995, the European Court of Justice compared national (LMG) and supra-national (Labelling Directive 2000/13/EG) law and determined that the LMG went beyond the requirements set by the Directive. Existing regulation of the food industry was seen as sufficient in controlling the use of health claims and no further procedures of approval were deemed necessary. Subsequently, Austria introduced an amendment (Federal Law Gazette Number 69, 2003, amendment to LMG 1975), proposing a change of §9 by mentioning the prohibition of health claims. A prohibition of misleading declarations had already been included in various paragraphs in the earlier version of the LMG (1975). When the European Health Claims Regulation was introduced in 2006, the Austrian LMG was transformed into the current LMSVG. With the procedure for authorizing health claims in place, there was no need for any further, voluntary codes of practice. From 2003 onwards, Austria has been involved in drafting the European health claims regulation. Before 2006, health claims could be found on various food products but also on food supplements and food additives. A very popular category for claims was dairy products, especially yoghurts. According to consumer representatives, Austrians still remember the claims used by Danone on digestive benefits of their yoghurts, due to heavy advertising and the use of the statement “accepted by the Austrian ministry of health”.

    Marketing Society Awards 2015 Marketing for Sustainable Consumption Spreading Good Marketing Society Awards 2015 Marketing for Sustainable Consumption 1 Executive Summary Objective In 2010, Unilever CEO Paul Polman introduced the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan, declaring ‘embedding sustainability into our business is a top priority’. One ambitious goal of the 10 year plan was ‘to improve the health and well-being of 1 billion people’. This is a story about a unique global social experiment - succeeding where governments and health authorities have time and again failed – to change people’s behaviour and improve health and life expectancy. Scale of the task High cholesterol is a key risk factor for the world’s number 1 killer - coronary heart disease - because cholesterol deposits lead to the narrowing of vital arteries. Around 40% of adults across the globe suffer from high cholesterol. Flora pro.activ launched in Australia in 1999, then rolled out to 20 countries round the world. Pro.activ contains plant sterols which, when eaten daily, can actively reduce cholesterol levels by up to 10% in 21 days. But human behaviour is very hard to change. Earlier pro.activ comms campaigns had failed to inspire people to change their behaviour and sales had stalled. A new approach Starting in Spain, “It Takes A Village” is a real-life social experiment - take a village, help them to lower their cholesterol with the help of Flora pro.activ and then use their successes to create content for a multi-media campaign to inspire others to change their behaviour and lower their cholesterol too. Results We have created a perfect circle.

Methods and Opportunities for Reducing or Eliminating Trans Fats in Foods Executive Summary Executive Summary For some time, Canadians have been learning about the health implications of trans fatty acids produced industrially during oil refining. Trans fatty acids have been implicated as in- creasing levels of LDL-cholesterol and lowering the beneficial levels of HDL-cholesterol in the blood. A decrease in the consumption of trans fatty acids is being identified as impor- tant to lowering the risk of coronary heart disease.
