Empowering the Next Generations with Whole Grain
15 November 2023 — 16:00 - 17:30 (CET)
A diet low in whole grains is the second greatest dietary risk factor for death according to the 2017 Global Burden of Disease study, and yet whole grain consumption continues to fall well below recommended levels in most parts of the world. Whole grains are key to healthy diets at every stage of life, and research shows that introducing whole grains at a young age helps establish healthy habits that can last a lifetime. Whole grains are also an excellent sustainable food choice – they have minimal environmental impact, are nutritionally dense and weather resilient, and can be stored for long periods, making them a natural staple of most diets around the globe.
The discussion will be live-streamed, and we encourage you to tune in! Please see the programme HERE and register HERE for the event.
