Description
How healthy is ‘healthy eating’? Many are confused about the scientific basis for many of the health claims made for common foods and drinks. Sales of ‘supplements’ are high but their use is controversial, since some consider them to be unnecessary if a proper diet is followed. The aim of this meeting is to consider how the biological activities of ingredients of common foods and drinks might explain their claimed benefits.
