Summary

The industry is a key stakeholder in upholding public health with its scale and reach. The role of the nutritionist-dietitian is imperative in reinforcing the positive contribution of food manufacturers in nutrition and health.

Nutritionist-dietitians in the industry ensure access to nutritious and affordable products by providing nutrition and health insights during the innovation and renovation process. This results in continuous improvement of the nutritional profile of product offerings by reducing sugar, salt, and saturated fat where possible, while increasing the use of ingredients like whole grain and fiber, as well as fortification. We empower families to make informed choices through nutrition education and healthy lifestyle programs. And we build, share, and apply nutrition knowledge through research collaborations with nutrition authorities and academicians to contribute meaningfully to addressing nutrition-related challenges.

To successfully drive nutrition, health and wellness in our workplace, nutritionist-dietitians need to continue to upskill and keep abreast with the current development in our profession and related fields.
