This is a problem because...
...when unhealthy foods dominate advertising and shelf space, they naturally replace real food in children’s diets — shaping their focus, mood and wellbeing.
Children aren’t choosing unhealthy food.
Marketing is.
Children are surrounded by foods high in fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) — on screens, at checkouts, and across the shelves. Ultra-processed foods are designed to grab attention. Real food rarely gets the same spotlight.
We’re developing creative campaigns and real-food learning that bring whole foods back into view — helping children grow up curious, confident and able to make informed choices for life.

Real food needs a louder voice
Ultra-processed foods are engineered to be convenient, long-lasting and highly marketed — giving them a huge advantage over real food, which gets only a fraction of the attention.
Children learn from what they see most.
Right now, that’s not fruit, vegetables or whole foods.
Because real food deserves real advertising too.
Working Together for Real Food Learning
We’re developing adaptable resources and partnerships that bring real food education to classrooms and homes alike.
Our simple, practical approach
We’re developing an age-based learning journey that grows with children — from early curiosity to confident, conscious choice.
Because when we understand food, we make better decisions — for our health, our families, and our planet.

About Me
Why I started Nature’s Food Co
Hi, I’m Roz — the founder of Nature’s Food Co.
Food felt like a mystery for most of my life. Mixed messages, low-fat rules, calorie fears — and the “healthy” labels that didn’t feel healthy at all. None of it created clarity; it just added more confusion.
When I became a parent, everything shifted. I realised that if I wanted my daughter to have a healthier relationship with food, I needed to build one myself. That meant unlearning what I thought I knew, and starting again.
I began reading credible, evidence-based books, and it truly felt like a light switched on. Suddenly, things we never learned growing up made sense.
And I realised I wasn’t the only one feeling this way — so many families and teachers were noticing the same confusion, and how ultra-processed foods dominate children’s attention long before they understand real food.
That’s why I created Nature’s Food Co. Not to impose rules or restrictions, but to help make real food visible again — through simple, joyful tools that support children, families and schools.
I hope you’ll join me in giving real food a louder voice.
