581: Nutrition strategies for healthy ageing

What if the key to healthy ageing isn't just about living longer, but maintaining metabolic wellness, bone strength, and cellular youth throughout our lifespan?

As obesity and type 2 diabetes continue to rise globally, the need for evidence-based nutritional interventions has never been more critical.

In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our event in Rotterdam in September 2025, we delve into the nutrition that is supporting health across the ageing journey.

We look at dietary fibre as a natural regulator for blood glucose control, and how an EU health claim for reduced glycemic response offers manufacturers a science-backed reformulation opportunity.

We hear about research that suggests animal protein intake is associated with better bone mineral density in older adults.

And we're introduced to a groundbreaking natural vitamin D3 source from mealworms that's three times better absorbed than conventional lanolin-based supplements.

Can food reformulation and innovative ingredients truly support lifelong health, or are we still missing pieces of the longevity puzzle?
