What if your next prescription isn’t a pill but a plate of food?

IISc Bengaluru and Tufts University (USA) are teaming up to launch a first-of-its-kind centre that could change how we treat disease by focusing on nutrition not just medicine.

Here’s what they’ll explore:
✅Gut health and immunity
✅Plant-based and precision diets
✅Nutrition’s role in ageing, cancer, & lifestyle diseases
✅AI-powered tools + tele-nutrition to bring expert advice to India’s remotest clinics
✅Ultra-processed foods and its impact on chronic illness

The centre will also reform medical education, training the next generation of nutrition-savvy doctors and researchers.

India stands at a critical crossroads, grappling with undernutrition in some corners and lifestyle diseases in others.

Large-scale intervention studies on anaemia, hypertension, and child malnutrition will help develop scalable healthcare solutions for our country's diverse population.

“This isn’t just about studying food. It’s about changing the future of medicine,” IISc told SF.
