lpv:translated text	". The fight against the serious public health problem of overweight- and obesity-related disease must be a priority from the early stages of life. This report asks Member States, local entities and school authorities to monitor and to improve the quality and nutritional standards of school meals. Nutritional information on food is important, particularly the difference between natural trans-fatty acids present in meat and dairy products and those produced during industrial processing (artificial). The undifferentiated labelling of trans fats will only confuse consumers, create a negative image of healthy dairy products and have undesirable effects on consumption, undermining public health (reduced intake of important nutrients such as calcium and proteins, for example). European indicators such as waist size are useful for monitoring the risk factors people are exposed to in relation to various obesity-related diseases. An understanding of the distribution of abdominal obesity facilitates the planning of more effective measures to minimise such problems. I agree with colour coding to label foods because, rather than clear and easily understandable labelling, what Europeans need are signs that they can interpret in order to make healthy choices."@en1
