Understanding Protein: Science, Needs, Trends, Innovations: A Workshop
The Food Forum will hold a virtual workshop exploring protein as a component of a healthy diet and in the context of the whole food system. The workshop will examine current recommendations for protein intake and methods for protein quality assessment, with a special focus on requirements throughout the female lifespan, protein and longevity, and the protein leverage hypothesis. Speakers will present on consumer trends, including food away from home, and broader implications for increased protein intake. The workshop will also feature a panel discussion on multisector collaborations to support protein research and address health impacts, and a talk on translating and communicating the science.
