The Dairy Matrix: More Than the Sum of Its Nutrients

Continuing Education Credits for: CDR, NSCA, ACSM, AAFP

Summary

Although it is widely recognized that we eat foods, not nutrients, nutrition science has historically focused on nutrients in isolation. Emerging research is taking a broader focus by exploring the role of the whole food package when it comes to health and wellness. Enter the food matrix. The food matrix comprises both a nutritional matrix and a physical matrix, which work in concert to affect nutrient digestion, absorption and metabolism. Learn more about this comprehensive context that may more fully reflect a food’s true nutritional value and health benefits.

Objectives

After this presentation, attendees should be able to:

  • Understand the history of nutrition science.
  • Discuss the emerging concept of the food matrix.
  • Consider examples of how the matrix may be responsible for unexpected results in clinical research.
  • Apply knowledge of the food matrix to your practice.
