One of the biggest food myths of our time is the idea that delicious food and healthy ingredients are mutually exclusive. But through care and creativity, we\u2019ve been able to create nutritious, crave-worthy products, from a broad range of seasonings to savory sauces and innovative coatings, showcasing the incredible power of like-minded partnerships and food science.<\/p>

At Griffith Foods, a focus on health and nutrition is part of our heritage. For over a century, our focus on purposeful evolution has ensured our products continuously improve the safety of food for consumers, while innovation and new ingredients help us to create solutions that nourish the world, meeting the changing needs and demands within health and nutrition It\u2019s a critical aspect of innovative food development.<\/p>

Through our Global Innovation Council (GIC) and Global Culinary Council (GCC), we\u2019ve been hard at work on best-in-class food innovations and culinary creations, using healthy ingredients in exceptional ways. Blending the diverse set of strengths from GIC and GCC members with skills and perspectives of internal and external partners ensures relevant understanding of what health and nutrition represent across the world, and allows customer-relevant innovation that can be scaled globally. <\/p>

Healthier At Every Turn<\/strong><\/p>

Griffith Foods looks at the whole recipe when we strive to make products healthier. We realize the importance of added nutritional properties like fiber and protein fortification and find ways to enable clean label.  These innovations help ensure that real value is passed on to customers and consumers alike. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve defined five key areas for health and nutrition advancement:<\/p>

  1. Clean label <\/strong>\u2014 Products developed without any artificial ingredients, artificial preservatives or synthetic ingredients.<\/li>
  2. Reduction<\/strong> \u2014 reducing fat, sugar, and sodium<\/li>
  3. Fortification<\/strong> \u2014 adding ingredients with specific nutrition benefits<\/li>
  4. Elimination<\/strong> \u2014 removing redients that have been shown to negatively impact people\u2019s health<\/li>
  5. Organics<\/strong> \u2014 creating recipes from organic ingredients to meet consumer demands<\/li><\/ol>

    As consumer preferences shift toward healthier, more nutritious foods, we\u2019ve continued making investments in this area to provide healthy alternatives that still deliver on taste and texture.<\/p>

    Worth Its Salt<\/strong><\/h3>

    Each year in the U.S., nearly 400,000 deaths<\/a> are related to high blood pressure – many of these, at least in part, due to modern consumers\u2019 sodium intake. Yet, most sodium is consumed in the form of processed foods.<\/p>

    In response to changing market conditions and consumer preferences, we developed Sodium Flex, an innovative platform designed to reduce sodium levels across a multitude of product categories while maintaining best-in-class taste and texture. Being able to play with a variety of components, like flavor enhancers and umami flavors, help create that functionality without the downsides of sodium.<\/p>

    \"This<\/figure>

    Healthy Innovation, Healthy Future<\/strong><\/h3>

    Our dedication to health and nutrition will continue to grow and mirrors the changing expectations of consumers and our global commitment to true nourishment. We\u2019re already building on the progress we\u2019ve made, and in the coming years, we plan to continue launching innovative, healthy, and nutritious food systems. Efforts in this area will help Griffith Foods responsibly and proactively meet evolving demands of the marketplace and increase our positive impact on consumers around the world.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
