Most of the UK population is not meeting Government recommendations in terms of dietary fibre intake, and deficiencies in intake of certain micronutrients have been identified in some groups. At the same time, there is an ongoing debate regarding 'ultraprocessed foods' (UPF). The conference will discuss the challenges and potential benefits of Food Systems to improve Health & Nutrition. The speakers have a wealth of experience in the topics and the conference will explore both from an academic and industry prospective.

There will be Q & A  sessions following the talks given by the speakers.

What participants will learn:

Potential challenges and solutions for food systems to improve health

Target audience:

NPD, anyone interested in nutrition & health and UPFs
