Two years ago, I met the well-known Provost of Research at Tufts, Simin Meydani, and she had a question.
Not about her 10 years of ground-breaking nutrition research on healthier living, reducing cancer risk by 25%, increasing life span by 50% and reducing weight gain, but a technical question on company formation.
As a result of that discussion and hundreds of others, we launched FulLife Nutrition with two other co-founders who are deep into the science of nutrition, FDA regulations, the early-stage engineering of food, and, of course...marketing. We then extended our unpaid team to startup food and beverage experts from the many people in the Tufts food and beverage community.
