What is Mars position on obesity?
We at Mars are committed to being a part of the solution in helping to address the problem of obesity. We are committed to helping people live healthy and balanced lifestyles. Food is not the only contributing factory of obesity, and confectionery is not the main driver. Striking a balance between ‘energy in’ and ‘energy out’ will help achieve weight management. Lifestyles have changed as the conveniences of modern life have lowered the daily calorie need. We are committed to address this issue by offering choices that respond to this change in environment. That is why we adhere to a strict Health and Nutrition Policy that guides us in our product design and labeling. Mars has developed a range of products that permit consumer choice when looking for an occasional treat or reduced calorie options. Additionally, Mars provides nutrition information on its packages and websites to aid in decision making.
