Protein Foods & Nutrition Development Association of India (PFNDAI) under the

leadership of Dr Sesikeran B., Chairman of PFNDAI Scientific Advisory

Committee has decided to organise a seminar on Exploring Wholesome Ingredients

for Holistic Health on Friday October 18, 2019 at Hotel Kohinoor Continental in

Mumbai. Dr. B. Sesikeran & CFTRI Director Dr. Raghavarao have already

confirmed to address the audience.

Indians are becoming quite aware of needs of not only safe and high quality foods but also the

essential nutrients that are needed for healthy and active life. They realise that they need more

proteins as well as avoid excess of fats, salt and sugar. They have been told that trans fats are

unhealthy and should also be avoided.

In their hectic lifestyle it is difficult for people to get all their requirements through meals

prepared and consumed at home. They need to eat outside foods and they also need to rely on

many foods and ingredients prepared and processed. FSSAI has introduced new regulation which

became effective in 2018 through which Food or Health Supplements, Nutraceuticals, Foods for

Special Dietary Uses, Foods for Special Medical Purpose, Functional Foods, and Novel Foods

became available for manufacture and sale. This will not only offer new opportunities for food

business operators but also health professionals and consumers trying to ensure that they get all

the nutrients and health ingredients through different foods and products and supplements to not

only maintain their body without nutrient deficiencies but also reduce the risks of many diseases

which they may face because of their diet, lifestyle and environment.

We will be discussing some of the state of the art science available for such ingredients

and foods and discuss their availability and application in our foods and diets in our

modern living. We have invited eminent scientists and industry leaders to discuss the

subjects which will certainly benefit not just the R&D and marketing professionals in

food and ingredients industry but also the nutritionists, dieticians and other health

professionals who all are involved in the recent developments in science and technology

of wholesome food and ingredients that ensure our holistic health.
