About us

The British Nutrition Foundation exists to promote health and wellbeing and prevent diet-related ill health through evidence-based nutrition science. 

 

We provide a bridge between nutrition science, government, industry, education and people, and a conduit to a healthier, more sustainable food environment for all.

 

Our team of nutrition scientists and education professionals promotes access to the latest evidence-based and trusted nutrition science, so that people have the knowledge, skills and confidence to make positive food, diet and lifestyle choices, and to create a healthier, more sustainable food environment for all.

 

Our vision is simple. We believe that healthy, sustainable diets should be accessible to all.

 

Elaine Hindal, Chief Executive, British Nutrition Foundation
