Nutrition and health
Nutrition and health has become an increasingly important technical theme across the entire food supply chain, driven by demand from consumers, regulators and retailers for increasingly healthy food and drink products. We have responded to the growth of this theme, offering specialist support to businesses of all sizes in the following areas:
- Product innovation and renovation to meet nutrition and health targets
- Consumer acceptance studies for nutrition and health messages
- Expert guidance on emerging areas in the nutrition and health market
- Regulatory aspects of nutrition (including nutrition and health claims)
- Thought-leadership and scientific review in the field of nutrition and health
- Project management of nutrition and health innovation (including scientific substantiation activities)
- Preparation of novel health claim dossiers for regulatory approval
- Analytical determination of nutrients
As well as specific expertise in product development, and in nutritional analysis, we can help in investigating how the consumer will react to new concepts, flavours and health messages, advise on the legislation surrounding nutrition labelling and the use of nutrition and health claims, and support the preparation of health claim dossiers. We also have extensive knowledge of the microbiological implications of product reformulation, and of aspects relating to agriculture and raw material production.
