The Top 10 Healthy Food Trends to Expect...

“Plant-based eating is a trend that we don’t see going away anytime soon,” says Ali Webster, PhD, RD, director of research and nutrition communications at IFIC. “There is sustained interest in eating more plant protein, while at the same time many people report eating less animal protein.”

Challenging The Giants: Mark Leong's Food Revolution

People struggle to be healthy. That’s because they don’t know what it means. “It’s about finding a deeper purpose in what our health truly means to us,” says Leong, co-founder, and CEO of Farmz. “For us to truly take care of our bodies, and to look and feel great, we need to start with our food.” Leong is a certified microbiologist, nutrition, and juice practitioner and has dedicated the last decade of his life to reversing chronic conditions across Asia. But behind his powerful movement in creating a healthier world,

Hey, Hippocrates: Food isn’t medicine. It’s just food

Hippocrates’s maxim is likely a misquotation — one that many people have a vested interest in continuing to promote. All too often, the phrase is used by unscrupulous people to sell nutritional nonsense like the latest detox or cleanse. It is also frequently used by reputable people trying to promote the importance of healthy diets, but they should shelve it so they aren’t confused with the quacks.

The key to good mental health in quarantine is in the food you eat

So, what’s the biological foundation of the food and mood paradigm? The answer is found in the relationship between the brain and the gut microbiome.

These changes to our food systems could improve human and planetary health

On the recent World Food Day, the clarion call was clearer than ever: We must fix our food systems to improve human health, drive economic growth and save the planet from environmental collapse. The challenges facing us are wide-ranging. The way the world produces and consumes food causes huge environmental impacts, and yet 3 billion people worldwide are unable to afford a healthy diet, and up to a third of the food we produce is wasted.

Food Leaders Take Notice: How Millennials Are Changing The Way We Eat

While it’s true that the world of food isn’t being disrupted overnight, millennials are certainly leading the change in the food revolution. From fast casual to farm-to-table, it seems as though every other month we hear about this generation finding something new to sink their teeth into. But there’s a bigger picture at play, and it’s one that’s not going away anytime soon. Here’s why...

Food Not Bombs: Targeting the Status Quo with Nourishing Acts of Defiance

In the United States, 20% of the federal budget goes to the military, and over 30% of edible food goes to waste. Operating in the ether between two statistics is Food Not Bombs, giving away food in the hope of refashioning the world as a place with healthier priorities and eating habits.

Food Swamps Are the New Food Deserts

It’s not just a lack of grocery stores that’s making us fat. It’s an overabundance of fast food.

Fool Me Twice

Healthy Food Trends Drive New Products

In today’s market, it’s hard to think of a more dominant food and beverage trend than the decisive consumer shift toward healthier, better-for-you products. From start-ups to large-scale operations with established big-name brands, companies are formulating new products, and reformulating existing ones, to get a slice of the rapidly growing business.

If You Think 'Organic' Food is 'Organic', Think Again

The organic food industry has outgrown the original regulations meant to protect it and its consumers. How 'organic is organic food' is even more important now than in the past.

Slow Food, High Gear

A new university in Italy aims to elevate gastronomy to an academic discipline—and put its students through a humbling workout.

Taking a No-Tolerance Approach to Deceptive Food Labeling

All we want when we look at a food label is to know what's in the stuff we're considering putting in our bodies. Because a lot of companies know they'll move more product if they fudge the facts, only strong disincentives to their doing so will stop them.

Why Was Food So Weird in the 70s?

We are what we eat, as they say, and popular dishes of the past are a reflection of the society that let them flourish. Though post-war years give us flashbacks of meatloafs shaped into igloos and way too many dishes based on some form of Jell-O product, it is also the era that let foreign cuisines flourish in North America. It’s when we first got introduced to Asian food, pizza and other favorites.

Why “natural” food has become a secular stand-in for goodness and purity

It sounds good, the idea of eating “naturally.” There are natural food stores and natural sweeteners. You can buy all-natural grapefruit juice. You can buy “natural artisan flavor birthday cake flavoring.” Instructions for following a paleo diet advise that you eat only natural foods, like your pre-agricultural ancestors. “Natural” recalls a prelapsarian past, the way food was supposed to be before we messed it up with industry. But defining “natural” food has proved difficult.

You care about where your food comes from. Shouldn’t you care about who grew and picked it?

Ultimately, the existence of the organic, certified humane, and non-GMO fads can be considered insulting as long as labor is ignored. Or it can be inspiring: in only a few decades, so many types of ethical and environmental eating have found a foothold. It's a positive sign that people may come to care about fair treatment as much as good taste.

Hey, Hippocrates: Food isn’t medicine. It’s just food

Hippocrates’s maxim is likely a misquotation — one that many people have a vested interest in continuing to promote. All too often, the phrase is used by unscrupulous people to sell nutritional nonsense like the latest detox or cleanse. It is also frequently used by reputable people trying to promote the importance of healthy diets, but they should shelve it so they aren’t confused with the quacks. What’s wrong with thinking about food as medicine? It does a disservice to both food and medicine.
