English dentists are concerned about the number of sweets in the office

It was Professor Nigel Hunt, dean of the faculty, who sounded the alarm:according to him, a change in consumer behavior in the workplace is urgent and essential. It is therefore necessary to encourage (as soon as possible) a healthy diet and encourage employees to develop reflexes to, he says, "avoid giving in to sweet temptations such as cakes, candies and cookies".

What solutions?

This “cake culture”, as specialists call it, would thus promote obesity and serious oral problems. But what to do to resist such delights? Dentists first recommend replacing fatty or sugary foods with lower calorie alternatives. Second solution:reduce portions and avoid snacking all day (e.g. eat a pastry at lunch break and not every 2 hours!). Finally, another rather original piece of advice:set up what English dentists call “a sugar calendar”. In other words, at the office, we display a timetable for snacking (birthdays, end-of-year celebrations, new arrivals, etc.) on which we indicate one or two days, during which we will have the right to have fun. Finally, last advice (a little more barbaric) eradicate any presence of fat or sugar near the desks.

Come on, it's hard we know, but it's for our good!
