A team led by Loughborough University reviewed 15 studies to compare the impact of PACE labelling and the current labelling. They found listing how much exercise was needed to burn off food and drink cut 65 calories per meal on average. And a blueberry muffin comes in at 48 minutes of walking and 25 minutes of running. “Unlike other types of food labelling, PACE labelling has the potential to serve as a continual reminder to the public about the importance of participating in regular physical activity,” she said.
