When it comes to chemicals in food, public perception often favours minimal levels, but does this reflect the science?

✅ Join us on 16 October to better understand the real story behind chemical limits in food and why lower doesn’t always mean safer.

💬 Standards are only as good as their implementation and #MethodsOfAnalysis. Without such methods we would have no idea whether a commodity was meeting provisions that had been established to ensure the food was safe, or meet the quality parameters or nutritional requirements.

#Nutrition matters for people with rare diseases because of vitamin and mineral deficiencies, difficulty swallowing or the need for specialised diets.

➡️ #MedicalNutrition can be an essential treatment and is often the only viable treatment for certain metabolic disorders.
