[L']OMS [Organisation mondiale de la Santé] a mis au point les «meilleurs achats» – un ensemble de 16 interventions pratiques et rentables qui fonctionnent et peuvent être réalisées au niveau primaire. L'objectif des «meilleurs achats» est de promouvoir la santé et de prévenir les maladies [non transmissibles] en introduisant des politiques telles que l'augmentation des taxes sur le tabac, restreindre la publicité sur l'alcool et reformuler les produits alimentaires avec moins de sel, de sucre et de matières grasses. 4, record 1, French, - meilleur%20choix
