Everybody loves a health food trend, from milk alternatives to a plant-based diet. The raw food movement goes way back, with historians suggesting that the first recorded mention of the diet goes back to the 1800s when Swiss-born Maximillian Oskar Bircher-Benner recommended eating raw apples to help with jaundice.

One of the latest food trends is the raw carrot salad, with the corresponding hashtag #rawcarrotsalad being viewed 8.1 million times on TikTok.

TikTok user Paige Nicole26, currently a student on a Holistic Hormone Specialty Program, explains in her video with over half a million views: “This [salad] has become a staple in my diet for balancing the excess estrogen that can peak at different times in my cycle.”

Our gut plays a much more crucial role than we would imagine. From breaking down the food and converting it into nutrients, balancing hormones, removing toxins to mental health, our gut almost defines our overall health and not just digestion. Many researchers are studying the gut microbiota nowadays. There is a wide range of bacteria – almost 40 trillion – that resides in our body, mostly in gut and provide different health benefits to us by taking care of important body functions. Unhealthy gut microbiome, on the other hand, could cause inflammation and change the way our immune system works; it also makes us susceptible to various diseases like diabetes, cancer, depression, and also autoimmune diseases like arthritis.

Mission Ventures, the UK-based accelerator operator, has launched a program at supporting nascent food firms offering better-for-you-products.

The Good Food Program (GFP) will support ten healthier-option challenger brands with the intention of helping them reach supermarket shelves at an affordable price point.

Mission Ventures is seeking applications from UK or EU companies that have created, or that have the potential to develop, products healthier than existing options.

The accelerator was established by three entrepreneurs from the UK food sector: Plum Baby co-founder Paddy Willis; John Stapleton, co-founder of New Covent Garden Soup and Little Dish; and Nigel Parrott, co-founder of Ape Snacks.

Mission Ventures has backed SME food businesses in its own right, including via a previous program obesity at tackling childhood through supporting fledgling healthier food firms. The accelerator also teamed up with UK bakery major Warburtons in July 2020

Employees now hold their employers as responsible and companies are looking at ways to help staff fulfill their nutritional goals – whether in the office or working remotely,” says Pradere.

The rise in popularity of home delivery apps and subscription services such as Hello Fresh highlight that convenience rates highly with time-poor workers, traditionally health-conscious women and younger people.

US firm Freshly has seen a corresponding increase in demand from employers who want to send nutritious, ready-made meals to their remote workforce, while digital canteens – as championed by Brussels-based food-tech company Foodiz – are on the rise.

Employees of firms who subscribe to these services use an app to order lunches daily from a menu of fresh, healthy choices;

TUESDAY, Aug. 30, 2022 (HealthDay News) — Individuals reporting higher intakes of ultra-processed food (UPF) are significantly more likely to report worse mental health symptoms, according to a study published online July 28 in Public Health Nutrition.

Eric M. Hecht, MD, Ph.D., from the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, and colleagues assessed whether individuals who consume higher amounts of UPF have more adverse mental health symptoms. The analysis included data from 10,359 adult participants in the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007 to 2012).

The researchers found that individuals with the highest level of UPF consumption were significantly more likely to report at least mild depression (odds ratio, 1.81), more mentally unhealthy days per month (risk ratio, 1.22), and more anxious days per month (risk ratio, 1.19). Similarly, those with the highest UPF consumption were significantly less likely to
