Have you read FAIRR’s most recent research overview for investors on #protein and #nutrition? Developed in collaboration with researchers from Tufts University, the document explores the role of animal-sourced foods and the potential for #PlantBased alternatives. These are highly debated topics in nutrition due to their impact on both human and planetary health. It summarises key information regarding: 🔷 Scientific understanding of protein needs 🔷 Nutritional differences between protein foods 🔷 Pros and cons of processed foods 🔷 Protein policies and regulations 🔷 Consumer prioritization on nutritional health The findings of this research overview provide key scientific insights into the #environmental and social impacts of different protein sources, clarify common assumptions about their health effects, and identify trends, risks and opportunities for investors with exposure to the protein #SupplyChain.

Have Zoe given up on "personalized" nutrition? Zoe's USP is that people have different metabolic responses to the same foods, so we need to eat diets personalised to our own unique biology. Yet Zoe's commercial and scientific activities suggest they have given up on the central premise of the company: 1️⃣ Zoe's Chief Scientific Officer made clear that the Zoe Method Study was intentionally designed not to test biological personalisation. 2️⃣ The M&S Zoe Gut Shot is a generic yoghurt drink for all. 3️⃣ The Zoe Daily30+ supplement (announced today) is a generic seed-based supplement for all. To be clear, I think the science "biologically-driven nutrition" claims are built from is very, very poor indeed, but it's interesting to see tacit acknowledgement of this by the company themselves..... #zoe #personalisednutrition #fibre #supplement #nutrition #wellness #guthealth

Just took part in a very interesting webinar moderated by Dr. Mitch Kanter (congrats, Mitch! ) on #DIASS (Digestible Indispensable Amino Acid Score) - a game changer in measuring protein quality which is key to advance nutrition, health and the impact of food on climate. This innovative approach focuses on the digestibility of amino acids, which are crucial for our health, in various foods. Why DIASS matters - traditional methods had limitations in accurately evaluating protein quality, DIASS provides a more precise measure by considering the amino acid profile of foods and their digestibility. It's particularly beneficial for evaluating animal vs. plant-based proteins, possible combinations of those that we humans need, or which plant based food is superior. The DIASS can guide food manufacturers in developing nutritionally superior products. It also helps consumers make informed choices about their protein sources. And countries that face malnutrution and development agencies can figure out best combinations of foods to tackle #malnutrition and nutrition related diseases. More research on the impact of protein quality is needed, including on foods indigenous to developing countries where we know little about their DIASS composition. New insights can make a huge difference on the impact of food on climate too... #Nutrition #ProteinQuality #DIASS #Innovation #Science

Forget about dogs or cats! You need a camel! 🐪 A recent study has unveiled the immense potential of probiotic camel milk as a nutritional beverage. The research highlights that camel milk, enriched with lactic acid bacteria and Bifidobacteria, offers significant health benefits, including antidiabetic, hypoallergenic, and anticancer properties. Key Findings: - Camel milk contains essential nutrients, beneficial enzymes, and organic acids, making it a powerful alternative to traditional dairy products. - The presence of probiotics like LAB and Bifidobacteria enhances gut health, lowers cholesterol, and strengthens the immune system. - Camel milk’s postbiotics show antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antihypertensive properties. - With increasing global demand, camel milk presents significant economic opportunities, especially in regions like North and East Africa, the Middle East, and parts of Asia. The key challenges: Developing standardised processing techniques to ensure consistency and quality is the main challenge, along with enhancing the taste to suit consumer expectations. But with its myriad of health benefits, maybe it’s worth the effort investors!

Vitamin A is super important, and I don't feel like it gets enough press. So I am going to do a series of posts over the next few days. And if you tune in regularly, you are going to get a sweet little education on this necessary micronutrient. In the study of nutrients such as Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene, a common approach is to isolate these substances, name them, and then further refine and rename their components. This method has proven effective in many scientific fields. The problem is that when this method is applied to nutritional science and its applications to people, it risks overlooking the broader context, especially the natural organic food sources of these nutrients. This approach can neglect the potential roles of undiscovered vitamers and co-factors associated with these vitamins. But it's even more complicated than that. Because each person presents a unique biochemical individuality, introducing numerous variables into any nutritional analysis. So, while examining Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene in isolation provides insights, if your nutritionist isn't considering their interactions and roles within the larger framework of your dietary sources and your personal biochemistry through a nutrigenomics analysis, you may not be getting the information you need to feel better! #nutrition #nutrigenomics #brainhealthmatters #functionalnutrition

💪 Protein is making a comeback! People choose a way of eating for a variety of reasons including health, religion, family traditions and personal values. I think it’s very important that we respect each other’s choices and I also think it’s important to understand the importance of various types of macronutrients. I’ve recently noticed that protein is making a comeback in the nutrition world. Many people, particularly women, are noticing that they just aren’t getting the results they want on a low or no protein diet. This is not a surprise because protein is incredibly important for a number of biological processes. In today’s blog I’m explaining the different roles of macronutrients like protein, carbohydrates, and fats. Come along for the lesson!

🔍 Trusting Nutrition and Health Claims 🤔 Have you ever seen a claim on a food or drink product label that has swayed your purchasing decision? Latest Campden BRI article for Institute of Food Science and Technology (IFST) written by me & Helen Arrowsmith exploring what nutrition and health claims are and whether they can be trusted ⬇️ Sneak preview: https://lnkd.in/ev3T9Si5 🍎 For nutrition the clue is in the name – these relate to a specific nutrient (e.g. fat, sugar, protein, fibre) and suggest a beneficial effect (e.g. low fat, sugar-free, source of protein, high fibre) 💪 Health claims go one step further – they make a statement that connects a nutrient/food with a positive effect on health (e.g. vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system) 💡 More insights in the article including whether the legislation is fit for purpose in the digital landscape?! #FoodScience #Nutrition #NutritionClaims #HealthClaims #RegulatoryAffairs
