Fonterra Head of Nutrition Mindy Wigzell looks at our nutritional needs change as we age. 

Our team at NZMP, Fonterra’s Global Ingredients business, have identified the top five trends for the dairy industry in 2019.

In the topsy-turvy world of food trends, protein doesn’t need any hype, for one simple reason – your body will not function properly without it.

As a nutrition company committed to innovative sustainable food production, we’re proud of the part our dairy plays in helping feed the world. 

Every year the world’s population grows by an average of 83 million people, this means that by 2050 there’ll be an estimated 2 billion more people on earth to feed. 

Anchor Chef’s Cream has been chosen by the world’s largest foodservice distributor, Sysco, as one of their top ten innovative products for 2019 – the first time a New Zealand product has ever been chosen.

Our gut is often referred to as our second brain.  It’s why we get a ‘gut feeling’ about something when we’re making difficult decisions, those butterflies in our stomach when we’re nervous, or the ‘kick in the guts’ when something bad happens.

Full-fat dairy is a friend, not a foe according to on-going scientific research.

Fonterra Senior Regulatory Strategist Charlotte Ligouri takes a look at protein and the incredible role it plays in our body.
