But food scientists have a far-reaching job from food safety to product development or creating new products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important to remember, we eat food not nutrients. No one sits down to a plate of pills.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr Anneline finds our obsession with things like protein powders and collagen supplements can be a distraction from what happens on farm. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Farmers are the start of it. They create food.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cFarmers are the start of it. They create food. They create nutrients essentially. What happens after it leaves them, it could be modified, transferred or changed.

Image: Heather Radveski<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When looking at food, Dr Anneline recommends analysing three key things:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Nutritional Composition \u2013 low, medium or high.<\/li>\n<li>Your Digestive tract \u2013 does the food agree with you, allowing nutrient absorption.<\/li>\n<li>The 80\/20 Rule \u2013 80 per cent nutritious food, 20 per cent fun<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the food is nutritious, but there is a problem with the individual\u2019s digestive enzymes, that would be a good place to start looking before resorting to dispensing vitamins, according to Dr Anneline.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Processing food<\/h2>\n<p>Dr Anneline also shares her concerns over the NOVA classification that grades processed foods. A classification of 1, for example, is unprocessed. A classification 4 is ultra processed. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe theory behind NOVA is, the more processed a food is, the worse it is for you. That is actually extremely simplistic,\u201d she shares. Cooking meat is a form of processing, so too is milk pasteurisation. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-270x270.jpg 270w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/farmers.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20230929_144350_145-scaled-1-740x740.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Milk pasteurisation is a form of processing.
