About
Healthy food cannot be solely defined by nutrient content.
It should be the end result of a food system that;

* advances social justice and animal welfare
* builds community wealth
* fulfils the nutritional requirements of the global population
now and into the future
This website and blog is about sharing nutritional perspectives of how to protect global ecosystems whilst feeding the world.
