Immense advances in the life sciences have deepened our understanding of the connection between nutrition and health, revealing that we can effectively improve our health and quality of life by redesigning our diet on a scientific basis. In Nutrition for a Better Life, one of the food industry's leading experts takes a factual look into the past and future of food and nutrition. As former Nestle CEO Peter Brabeck-Letmathe shows, while in the past forty years convenience was the selling point for many industrially produced foods, consumers have now come to demand specifically healthy products.
