"AI Lu Minfang" answers these questions with a video. In the future, not only will everyone be able to get adequate nutrition, but life technology will also bring customized milk products for everyone, from parents to children, everyone's exclusive milk can not only meet the targeted intake of trace elements, but also bring unique taste buds based on personal preferences.
At the event, Dr. Zhang Xuguang, assistant vice president of Mengniu Group and head of Nutrition Science Research Institute of Global R&D Innovation Center, introduced the innovation plan of "whole life nutrition milk + precision nutrition" : Through the carrier of life nutrition milk, integration of precision nutrition technology, maintenance of personalized health, and strive to create a cup of future-oriented "three good milk".
The first good - "good source", that is, based on the latest scientific understanding of nutrition, fully integrate the high-quality nutrients of different milk sources such as milk and goat milk, and realize the collocation of high-quality nutrients from a variety of different sources in a more sustainable way.
The second good - "good combination", Mengniu life nutrition milk can be based on the whole life cycle of different people and metabolic health, cardiovascular health and other specific needs of nutrition fortification, to achieve milk as a carrier, for specific functions of the nutrient combination delivery system.
The third good - "good personalized choices", Mengniu will integrate precision nutrition technology into the design of life nutrition milk in the future, through multidimensional accurate assessment of individual health status and nutritional needs, with the help of personalized evaluation algorithm system to generate personalized nutrition formula, and realize the automatic addition of effective ingredients, and finally produce customized life nutrition milk to meet the personalized nutrition and health needs of thousands of people.
In order to create such a cup of "three good milk" this beautiful vision, Mengniu with global resource advantages continue to integrate innovation, in basic research and application transformation, has taken one solid step after another.
