"Clean Label" Simple, Straightforward or Multifaceted?

This webinar was presented live on June 26, 2023.

This webinar will address how "clean label" is a popular, tossed around catch-phrase, and explore the significance of what it really means to those who influence consumer food choices. Brand marketers, public health advocates and health care practitioners all feed into messaging; yet the perception for various consumer psychographic subpopulations may be relative to different product categories. What are dietitians advising their patients and clients in counseling and how does this affect what food manufacturers believe responds to preferences? Most importantly, how significant is "clean" eating for health considering nutrient composition and toxicology?
