Children who eat the same food as their parents have healthier diets, according to a new study.

The University of Edinburgh research looked at the family meal habits of more than 2000 five-year-olds.

It also found that an "unpleasant atmosphere" during mealtimes could negatively affect a child's diet.

The report called for more to be done to help parents establish good eating habits in children's early years.
