OPUS research project in the TV talk show 'Aftenshowet'

Professor Arne Astrup was interviewed about the research project OPUS and the New Nordic Diet on Monday 27 September in the TV talk show Aftenshowet (1st part) shown on the Danish TV channel DR1.

 

The OPUS research project 'Optimal well-being, development and health for Danish children through a healthy New Nordic Diet'- runs from 2009 till 2013.

 

It has been described as the world’s largest research project into children’s health and well-being and is aimed at helping to solve global problems such as obesity, obesity-related diseases and learning difficulties.

 

One of the main objectives of the project is to establish a multi-disciplinary research centre to develop a healthy and palatable new food and eating concept "The New Nordic Diet", and to examine how such a diet can affect mental and physical health.
