Nutrition Sharing

When it comes to science that directly impacts our well-being, nutrition often comes to mind. As society advances, city dwellers increasingly strive to eat healthily and pay more attention to applying nutritional science in their daily diets. To meet this growing interest, the Science Promotion Unit organises sharing sessions of “QK x Science Cafe”. We have invited registered dietitians to explore the science of nutrition with us and share their inspiring stories in a relaxing atmosphere.

Session 1
Food Allergy: Prevent, Treat, Thrive

When facing foods that may trigger allergic reactions, many people choose to strictly avoid them. However, this approach may raise concerns about maintaining balanced nutrient. Beyond avoidance, is it possible to actively prevent or treat food allergies?
