In this episode of Talkin' After Hours, the LCDC’s Kate Tarrant and guest host Mark Tupman chat to Dan Kittredge, farmer, educator, and founder of the Bionutrient Association. Dan has become one of the leading proponents of “nutrient density,” with ground breaking research to measure and define food quality, and linking it directly to how it’s grown.

Our conversation delves into the significance of nutrient density in food, the challenges of defining it, and the critical role of soil health in achieving high nutritional quality. Dan also shares his journey in sustainable agriculture, the establishment of the Bionutrient Institute, and the ongoing quest to understand and improve nutrient density in food systems. 

Dan is spreading the word globally, and is currently on an epic world tour, bringing his Certificate-Level Masterclass in Nutrient-Dense Food to Australia and New Zealand this April & May. For more information on Dan and the course head to https://www.dankittredge.com/
