Summary Designing effective behaviour change interventions is key to promoting healthy eating. This paper takes a theoretical perspective to consider why people do not behave in ways that promote health and summarises evidence‐based principles and strategies for behaviour change. We present a theoretically driven, comprehensive method for intervention design using several tools recently developed in behavioural science.
