Healthy Eating
Ramirez strives to make a big contribution towards quality of life through “healthy eating”, always allied to physical exercise. The Ramirez Nutrition Centre, CENUTRA, is one of the driving forces behind this vision of the future. The CENUTRA, set up by Ramirez, with scientific support from the Faculty of Nutrition and Food Sciences (Faculdade de Ciências da Nutrição e Alimentação) of Porto University, sponsors scientific research in health, nutrition and food sciences, especially geared towards canned fish and its benefits; and it has a very specific focus on the production of content for nutrition training. The CENUTRA aims to seek scientific knowledge that will lead to a healthy diet and disseminate it among the community. The goal is to help to promote the Mediterranean diet. With the introduction of the so-called Junk Food, society has forgotten the benefits that canned sardines – with its high content in proteins and also vitamins B1, B2, PP, Calcium, Phosphorus, Iron and Copper – can provide to pregnant women, growing children, osteoporosis suffered by the elderly, as well as contributing to greater longevity of all of us. The Faculty of Nutrition and Food Sciences of Porto University supervises the CENUTRA in the fields of science, education and raising awareness among the consumer.
