To eat, or not to eat; that is the question. In today鈥檚 world we are infiltrated with all types of conflicting messages. Foods are labeled as 鈥渘atural鈥� or 鈥渉ealthy鈥�; we鈥檙e told to load up on vitamins and anti-oxidants; insert probiotics into our diet and to stay clear of pesticides. But what does all this really mean? What is the evidence for any of these claims? Show me the science! And so we will.
The Lorne Trottier Public Science Symposium Series is proud to present four distinguished speakers, all with expertise in food. From what鈥檚 on your plate to cooking in the kitchen, each of the speakers will present their views on food and the science behind it. Following the speakers鈥� presentations, the public will be encouraged to ask questions and engage in a discussion with all the participants.
