Enterprises are the main body to explore R&D and transform the nutrition and health industry into a new era of precision nutrition

With the continuous improvement of consumers' health awareness, public nutrition targeting "groups" can no longer meet the needs, while "precise nutrition" focusing on "individual" health status has become a new consumption trend and research hotspot

The summit brought together many representatives of industrial development, all of whom are actively exploring the work related to the new era of precision nutrition in China
