The gut microbiome is one of the hot topics on the lips of nutritionists, dietitians, and the food industry as a whole. But are consumers keeping up with an area of understanding that is moving at such speed? From probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, to the impact of artificial sweeteners on the mind-gut connection, there is a lot to get your head around. In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded live at our Inspiring Nutrition event in London in November 2023, we delve into this dynamic market. Our panel moves beyond the buzzwords and discusses the opportunities and the pitfalls of a still evolving market, and which ingredients are driving this area forward. This session was titled: "Staying ahead of the cutting-edge gut microbiome market."
