Nutritional Engineering

Nutritional engineering is a multidisciplinary field that combines principles of science, engineering, and nutrition to design and develop food products and processes that improve health and well-being. It involves analyzing how nutrients behave during food production, optimizing ingredient formulations, and creating innovative foods or supplements to meet specific dietary needs. By applying engineering techniques, nutritional engineering aims to enhance the bioavailability, stability, and safety of nutrients, ultimately contributing to better nutrition solutions that are accessible, sustainable, and tailored to individual or population health goals.
