Next Generation of Food & Nutrition Science (Janine Higgins, PhD)

When it comes to food and nutrition, our default is to think of it as a math problem. But what happens when the calculator doesn’t work? What happens when we plug in 2+2 and get 7? Or 3? Or any number of other variable outcomes? When the data collected is off by 20, 30 or even 50%, how can anyone utilize that data to improve their lives?

That’s exactly what is happening in the world of food and nutrition. We have piles of studies and endless apps filled with personal nutrition data that is… well… wrong. And that’s what makes the work of today’s guest, professor Janine Higgins from the University of Colorado School of Medicine at Anshutz, so immensely important. She and her team are integrating technology to accurately collect more exact food intake levels, measure chewing rates, movement patterns, and more that is moving food and nutrition science from “best guess” to world-changing accuracy. Today’s interview is a free-flowing discussion about the past, present and very near future of food, nutrition and the impact on our everyday lives.
