Nutrition Unlocked

Have you ever wondered why the nutrients in the food we consume have particular effects on our bodies? Why food allergies are on the rise? How gut health is linked to everything from mood to immunity? Or simply just wanted to know more about the relationship between science, nutrition, and our bodies?

Scientists are continually uncovering new understandings of how nutrition affects our strength, mobility, energy, and even mood. And there’s fascinating research on the horizon.

Join us as we invite our expert hosts and globally renowned guests as they share their knowledge and expertise in the fields of health and nutrition, to help us uncover the simple science behind successfully managing our complex everyday health needs. We’ll cover everything related to nutrition: from how it affects our brains to women’s health, to the meaning of “sustainable nutrition” and more. We even myth-bust.

The Nutrition Unlocked podcast, sponsored by Nestlé Health Science, brings to life the intersection of science and nutrition. With aging populations and people taking greater control of their health than ever before, we are making the science of nutrition simpler and more accessible for people all over the world and at every stage of life.
