NHS Healthy Choice Quiz: What's your score?

We are supporting the Department of Health and Social Care and the NHS on a new campaign encouraging all adults to take the Healthy Choices Quiz. This health and wellbeing quiz aims to empower adults to take control of their health by making small changes day to day.

Taking around 5 minutes to complete it asks questions about your lifestyle in the areas of eating, movement, alcohol consumption, smoking and vaping, mental health and sleep. You’ll receive an overall score based on your answers. This score indicates how your lifestyle could be affecting your health and wellbeing.

You’ll also be directed to guidance and advice for areas you could improve including a range of free NHS apps and tools. From a 9-week running programme for absolute beginners, to an anxiety reducing email programme, the NHS has a range of support on offer.

Whether you want to eat better, move more or sleep deeper, the Healthy Choices Quiz can be your first step towards a healthier you.

Food Standards Agency: Consumer Recall Notice – Nestlé SMA Infant Formula and Follow-On Formula

On 05 January 2026, Nestle voluntarily recalled 12 SMA infant formula products as a precaution due to potential contamination with cereulide toxin from Bacillus cereus bacteria. Bacillus cereus infection or cereulide toxin poisoning most commonly causes rapid onset (between 15 minutes and 6 hours) vomiting and diarrhoea that is self-limiting and generally resolves in 24 hours. No cases had been microbiologically confirmed as of 08 January 2026.

Advice for parents, carers and guardians:

  • If Nestlé SMA Infant Formula and Follow-On Formula are used, check the batch codes to determine whether the product fall under the remit of the recall (see website below).
  • If there is a match, stop consumption of the food product and report it to Nestle via https://www.nestle.co.uk/en-gb/getintouch or call the careline on 0800 081 8180.
  • Consumption must stop even if the infant has not displayed any signs of il-health (nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps).
  • For health concerns, please seek advice from healthcare professionals, i.e., health visitor, GP, NHS 111.
  • If the formula or follow-on formula was prescribed by a health professional for your infant, consult a pharmacist or other medical professional before changing formula.

The batch codes for the affected food products are listed in the Food Standards Agency news alert which is also being updated regularly.
