Kerstin Plehwe sheds light on the health significance of nutrient-rich nutrition, Laura Nyström puts the current state of research on food quality into perspective. Dan Barber shows from the perspective of agriculture and gastronomy how taste and nutrient density can be promoted together. Laurenz Werner explains why the AVINA Foundation is increasingly shifting its focus from symptoms to the foundations of a healthy food system. Together they trace the path from living soil through high-quality food to healthy people and ask what it takes to turn this from a convincing idea into reality. This event is part of the Soil to Soul Symposium 2026. Here's the link to the full programme overview.
