\u2018all or nothing\u2019 approach when it comes to making positive lifestyle decisions.<\/p>\n<p>The company says that <em>All or Something<\/em> means giving a healthier option a go, rather than

than being occasionally perfect and that\u2019s exactly what the new campaign is about.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;All or Something<\/em> represents the space in between the extreme and doing nothing,
