Beyond the “Ultra”: the science behind what we eat - a panel discussion
**Arrival 10:45, panel begins at 11:00**
This high-level panel discussion will bring together stakeholders to discuss with policymakers how food processing can help consumers lead healthier and more sustainable diets fit for their specific lifestyles while separating the facts from fiction in the ‘ultra-processed’ debate. We will also hear how leading food and drink companies are helping consumers access more nutritious and balanced diets.
The session includes an opening keynote from Michalis Hadjipantela MEP, then a moderated panel discussion and an audience Q&A.
