Earlier this month, Tia Rains, PhD, VP of Science, Innovation & Corporate Affairs, spoke at Nutrition News Update, a two-day media event connecting food and beverage brands with reporters specializing in food, nutrition, and health. During her presentation, Tia highlighted key insights from the Ajinomoto Group’s Food Infodemic Report, focusing on: 1. Strategies to navigate nutritional misinformation in today’s landscape, using MSG as a case study to illustrate these challenges. 2. How the majority of people in the U.S. don’t know who to turn to for proper nutrition information, and how RDs and nutrition media play a key role in solving this. Attendees also had the opportunity to sample MSG in the viral cucumber salad recipe by Logan Moffitt, which has recently made waves on TikTok. Check out pictures from the event below.

This week, we celebrated one of the region’s largest wetlands restoration projects near our production facility in Eddyville, Iowa. Ajinomoto Health & Nutrition is transforming over 130 acres of land along the Des Moines River back into its original wetland habitat, supporting wildlife like endangered Indiana bats and whitetail deer. “For more than 100 years, we have been delivering on our mission to help the world eat well and live well,” said Ryan Smith, Chief Growth Officer and Executive Vice President at Ajinomoto Health & Nutrition. “This inspiring project reflects our commitment to sustainability.” Our volunteers have planted over two thousand native trees, shrubs, flowers, and grasses, and the wetland has already become a beloved landmark for our team members. “While the wetland restoration is still in its beginning stages, we can already see the impact it will have on generations to come,” said Stephen Salevsky, Senior Director of Operations at the Ajinomoto Health & Nutrition Eddyville production facility. We are proud to support conservation efforts and bring people together in our community. #Sustainability #Community #WildlifeConservation #AjinomotoHealthAndNutrition #WetlandsRestoration
