Abstract
A transformation of food systems is needed to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals specified in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development. Recognizing the true costs and benefits of food production and consumption can help guide public policy decisions to
effectively transform food systems in support of sustainable healthy diets. A new, expanded framework is presented that allows the
quantification of costs and benefits in three domains: health, environmental, and social. The implications for policy makers are discussed.
