Nutrient-dense foods lost first, driving hidden hunger
Original: Food Loss and Waste Awareness Day: Nutrient-dense foods lost first, driving hidden hunger
Food Loss and Waste Awareness Day highlights that the foods richest in vitamins and minerals — fruits, vegetables, dairy and other perishables — are the ones most often lost or wasted before reaching consumers. Nutrition commentators warn this trend worsens so-called hidden hunger, where people consume enough calories but miss essential micronutrients, and are calling for supply chains that better protect nutrient-dense foods.
Why now: Awareness-day coverage is drawing attention to the link between food waste and micronutrient deficiency.
