#InternationalLiteracyDay isn't just all about words; it's about understanding the foundations of a healthy life. Nutrition security is a cornerstone of our well-being, and protein plays a crucial role in the growth, development, and maintenance of a strong immune system. Yet, for many people across the South Asian countries, it continues to remain elusive. It’s about time that we work together to promote sustainable agriculture, improve food distribution, and empower communities to make informed choices about their diet. Join us in spreading awareness for protein literacy, food security and nutritional equity. Use our protein-o-meter on the Right to Protein page to calculate the protein content in your daily meals to make informed food choices: https://lnkd.in/dbta7YYu #FoodSecurity #Nutrition #Protein #InternationalLiteracyDay #RightToProteinSouthAsia

📊 It's #ManuscriptMonday! 🌱 Researchers implemented a systematic review on the nutritional, health, and environmental effects of novel plant-based foods (NPBFs) in high-income countries, revealing that NPBFs generally have lower environmental impacts than animal-based foods. To promote informed policymaking, the results suggest that future priorities should include determining nutritional standards and labeling, researching health effects, and standardizing environmental impact assessments. ✨ Read more: https://buff.ly/4eJQonO #PlantFood #HealthyEating #SustainableFood #Nutrition #PlanetaryHealth Nutrition Reviews

A new generation of plant-based meat alternatives - formulated to mimic the taste and nutritional composition of red meat - have attracted considerable consumer interest, research attention, and media coverage. This has raised questions on whether plant-based meat alternatives represent proper nutritional replacements to animal meat. This webinar discusses the use of food metabolomics to profile nutrients in foods well beyond the limited nutrients routinely appearing on Nutrition Facts panels: https://buff.ly/3Wam6TI #ChemetrixAcademy #MeatAlternatives #Metabolomics #FoodTesting #FoodSafety

Happy World Milk Day ! Nowadays, #nutrition research focuses on the holistic impact of whole foods on health. This entails the recognition that a food’s impact is shaped by the interaction of its components and structure, going beyond the sum of its individual nutrients (i.e., food matrix effect). This #DairyMatrix factsheet series delves into the emerging body of research on the dairy matrix, reshaping current nutritional and health perspectives. Dairy foods have different matrices that result in distinct matrix effects, each factsheet will take you through the specificity of understanding the dairy matrix, #milk, #cheese, and #yoghurt. 🔹 Factsheet of the IDF N° 27/2023: Dairy matrix: Understanding its impact on the health effects of dairy foods 🔗 https://lnkd.in/emxKH_KN 🔹 Factsheet of the IDF N° 33/2023: Dairy matrix: The case of milk 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eQmDM4Ud 🔹 Factsheet of the IDF N° 34/2023: Dairy matrix: The case of cheese 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e5muFVet 🔹 Factsheet of the IDF N° 35/2023: Dairy matrix: The case of yoghurt 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eNMcxCfZ #ProudToBeDairy #WeAreDairy #WorldMilkDay

PROTEIN ✓ Proteins are complex molecules that are fundamental to the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs. ✓ They are composed of long chains of amino acids, which fold into specific three-dimensional shapes that determine each protein's unique function. ✓ Proteins are essential for growth, repair, and maintaining overall health. ✓ They can be obtained from various dietary sources, including both animal products (meat, dairy, eggs) and plant-based foods (beans, nuts, seeds). ✓ Each type of protein serves a unique and vital purpose, underscoring the importance of proteins in sustaining life and promoting well-being. #protein #diet #health #muscles #food #energy #supplements #nutrients #metabolism #musclemass #repair #foodscience #foodtechnology #biotechnologt #nutrition #enzymes #antibodies #immunity #FOODTECHNOLOGIST #FSSAI #foodindustry #foodforall #who #linkedinconnections Food Safety and Standards Authority of India FICSI - Food SSC

🌍🍎 On the occasion of World Food Day, we reflect on the importance of ensuring universal access to nutritious and diverse food for all people in the world. Food represents not only nutrition, but also diversity, availability, accessibility and food security. Pharmanutra is committed to supporting the health of as many people as possible through innovative and affordable nutritional solutions. We are aware that many people, especially the most vulnerable, are restricted to consuming basic or unhealthy foods due to economic restrictions or access. This is a problem that requires a collective commitment to find sustainable solutions. With our scientific research and product development, pharmanutra promotes an integrated approach to health, which includes not only the care of specific conditions, but also education and access to a balanced and nutritious diet.

As a Dairy Farmers of America employee, I always appreciate seeing research that confirms what we’ve known all along — the benefits of real dairy. A recent study found that 72% of plant-based milk alternatives are fortified with calcium and vitamin D to match the nutritional profile of cow’s milk. But here’s the kicker: while they might match in calcium and vitamin D, most fall short in one key area — protein. As Abigail Johnson, a professor of nutrition at the University of Minnesota, put it, "Our findings point to a need to ensure that consumers are aware that many plant-based milk alternative products in the marketplace today are not nutritionally equivalent to cow's milk." This study shared by Newsweek is a great reminder of why cow’s milk deserves a spot on your table! 🥛 I encourage you to make informed choices and embrace the unique nutritional benefits that real dairy brings to your diet. #Research #ConsumerInsights #FoodScience #DairyFarmers #NutritionStudies #DairyIndustry
Scientists analyzed how over 200 plant-based milks compare to cow's milk

Omega-3s are essential yet scarce nutrients, so they must be used carefully. 🤔 Imagine if we could help salmon farmers to improve their control of omega-3 LC-PUFA levels in diets to make more efficient use of limited nutrient resources. Well, now we can! 📣 This latest research introduces a groundbreaking model that predicts fatty acid composition of Atlantic salmon in response to varying dietary fatty acid profiles. 🔗 Dive into the study here: https://lnkd.in/eNwtT7kY The team at Veramaris is already converting this model into a handy tool that can help everyone involved in setting the specification for Omega-3 levels in farmed salmon. 🤞 I hope this will ensure that farm-raised salmon always delivers on its promise of being ‘high in Omega-3’.
