Immune health and nutrition in the wake of COVID-19

Episode 40,   Apr 30, 2020, 08:00 AM

The coronavirus COVID-19 has put a renewed focus on the immune system, and particularly how to improve individual immune response. What can consumers do to support their immune system through improved nutritional health?  With mis-information spreading widely around immune health on social media can the food and nutrition industry help ensure that the focus remains on science-based facts?

In this podcast, in partnership with Yestimun® Beta Glucan from Leiber GmbH, we investigate the role diet and nutrition plays in supporting a healthy immune system, how gut health impacts health, and how the industry is responding to growing demand from consumers for immune health supporting products, ingredients, and nutraceuticals. Joining us for this fascinating look at immune health are Eike Hagemann, Business Unit Director Health, Leiber GmbH, Samanta Maci, Senior Commercial & Technical Manager, EMEA, Kemin Human Nutrition and Health and Philip C. Calder, Professor of Nutritional Immunology, University of Southampton.
