The BBC carried the following posting on its web site of 13th October 2011. “Alongside the obesity strategy, ministers also announced new recommended levels of energy intake following a review by advisers. It is the first time for 20 years that they have been changed. For a man of average height, the daily amount has increased from 2,550 calories to 2,605. For women it has increased from 1,940 to 2,079.”

Give two reasons why this posting sends the wrong message to those trying to avoid overweight and obesity.
