Arla Food for Health

The Centre is founded in the spirit of exploring the competences between the four stakeholders to carry out best-in-class dairy health and nutrition research and become a platform for knowledge sharing, training and education.

Intake of milk and dairy foods are known to have beneficial effects on health for children, adults and elderly. Arla Food for Health sponsors science-based research on identification, isolation and characterization of health associated milk components, including validation, quality and up-scaling of such as well as the mechanisms behind the health benefits of dairy products and ingredients in-vitro, in-vivo and in clinical studies.
