Purpose of OPUS

The purpose of OPUS is, among other things, to find answers to the following questions:

• Can the New Nordic Diet prevent and reduce obesity in children? 
• Do Nordic ingredients hold unrecognised health potential? 
• How can palatability be used to fight disease? 
• Can the New Nordic Diet be adapted to different cultural norms and needs? 
• Can the New Nordic Diet strengthen children’s physical and mental development? 
• Can we develop a new Nordic diet concept – the New Nordic Diet – as the 21st century’s answer to the Mediterranean diet? 
• Can the New Nordic Diet promote Denmark’s competitive edge, while at the same time strengthening the health of our planet by encouraging more sustainable food production and less environmental impact?
