What’s new in food supplements for cognitive health? How can AI be deployed in the product development process? And how are health and wellness trends in human foods impacting the petfood industry?
All of these topics and more are on the agenda at this year’s NutrEvent conference and exhibition in Rennes, France October 17-18.
Bringing together speakers from academia, the food industry and the investment community, this year’s event also features a pitch slam and a plenary session on personalized nutrition moderated by Nard Clabbers at NCNC Nutrition Consultancy.
“I think smart, short, simple behavioral questionnaires and digital tools to track mood, behavior and measure psychological traits are the next game changer [for personalized nutrition],” said Clabbers. “A special mention must go to the microbiome as it is starting to be a next frontier of science-driven nutritional advice.
“What is key is to make personalization much simpler and differentiated for each niche: healthcare, sports and retail.”
