This session will explore the concept of Food as Medicine, with a particular focus on how nutrition and gut health can play a critical role in managing chronic diseases, improving immune function, and enhancing mental and physical well-being. Experts will dive into the science behind functional foods, the importance of the gut microbiome, and how food-based interventions are being integrated into healthcare. Attendees will gain insights into how food can reduce healthcare costs, improve patient outcomes, and foster innovation in the food industry.
