Nestle announced its intent to enter the health food intended to prevent disease. In a country that likes to eat, that could be a very good thing.

2. Can food health science provide a viable alternative to pharma?

3. Does food health science have a huge advantage because a healthy diet is something that’s being considered more widely by governments and consumers as an alternative to high medical costs?
