As the food landscape continues to evolve at a rapid pace, RDNs must stay connected to food culture, emerging science, and the broader social forces influencing how people eat, drink, and think about health. Consumer priorities—ranging from stress management and personalization to sustainability, pleasure, and cultural connection—are reshaping what “healthy” looks like in real life.
This session explores the most influential food, nutrition, and wellness trends, including food as medicine, functional and mood-supporting ingredients, personalized nutrition, cultural foodways, climate-conscious choices, and the growing demand for health-forward indulgence. Trends are translated into practice implications for food and nutrition professionals seeking insights, particularly for older adults.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the cultural shifts and macro forces that are influencing food, nutrition and wellness trends.
- Describe emerging trends and how they align with older adult consumer preferences.
- Outline forecasts for future trends related to food technology, ingredients, culinary innovations and the evolving definition of wellness.
We anticipate that this webinar will be approved for 1 hour CPEU.
