    This publication was updated in July 2024, to make clear within the executive summary the limitations of the research and the need for further research. This does not change any content of the main report or the findings. This study, commissioned by Public Health Scotland, aims to explore and understand the perspectives of individuals with lived experience of eating disorders in relation to eating out of home (OOH). This includes their experiences of eating OOH currently, the perceived impact calorie labelling in these settings would have on them and, where appropriate, how their experience of calorie labelling could be improved.
