Nestlé and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have launched a multi-year research partnership to advance the scientific understanding of how nutrition supports healthy longevity and women's health, two of Nestlé's key strategic growth priorities.
The partnership comes at a time when the pace of population aging is much faster than in the past. By 2030, one in six people in the world will be aged 60 years or older. As consumers reach midlife and beyond, they begin to prioritize elements such as energy levels, strength, quality sleep, as well as physical and mental recovery.
Ryan Carvalho, Head of Nestlé Research, said: "As people age, their nutritional needs change, and we know that nutrition plays a fundamental role in helping people maintain their long-term health. Through this partnership with NTU, we will be able to strengthen the growing body of scientific evidence on how nutrition can contribute to healthy longevity, particularly through midlife and beyond, including the menopausal transition. These insights will guide the development of science-backed, consumer-centric nutritional food and beverages." |
