Watch the full live stream below of the Goodwood Health Summit, presented by Randox Health which took place on Thursday 19 September 2024 with a world-leading panel of experts to debate topics and trends around the gut microbiome, infant feeding and the first five years.
Health Summit
Health Summit 2024
Our first discussion highlighted the critical role of the gut microbiome and proper nutrition in early childhood development, especially during prenatal and infant stages.
Mr. James Kinross, a gastroenterologist, explained that the infant microbiome, shaped by maternal health, breastfeeding, and early exposures, is vital for long-term health. He noted that modern lifestyles, including diet and antibiotic use, are reducing microbiome diversity, which he compared to an "internal climate crisis." This decline is linked to higher risks of chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, and mental health issues.
Dr. Vicky Sibson, a public health nutritionist, stressed the importance of good nutrition from pre-conception to age five. She discussed barriers such as economic challenges, formula marketing, and societal factors that hinder breastfeeding support and access to healthy foods.
Both experts advocate for improved public policies, better education, and stronger regulations on food and formula marketing to protect maternal and infant health, and raise awareness of the microbiome's significance in early development.
This discussion focused on the complexities of early childhood nutrition, the influence of the food industry, and ongoing research into the gut microbiome. Professor Louise Kenny, who led a birth cohort study in Liverpool, emphasised the critical importance of the first 1000 days (from conception through infancy) in shaping lifelong health. Her research explored how maternal health, diet, and social inequality affected the infant microbiome and long-term health outcomes, particularly the challenges disadvantaged families faced in providing optimal nutrition.
Dr. Chris Van Tulleken, an expert on ultra-processed foods, critiqued the food industry’s role in public health. He explained how ultra-processed foods, marketed as convenient, contributed to long-term health issues like obesity and poor microbiome health. He also highlighted misleading marketing tactics that influenced poor nutritional choices for children.
Both experts called for systemic changes, including stricter food marketing regulations, increased support for families to make healthier choices, and better funding for maternal and child health research.
Our food system is violent in the sense that it does physical and emotional harm, particularly to the most vulnerable: pregnant women, new-borns, and young children.

The Q&A session explored critical topics surrounding maternal and child health, focusing on nutrition, breastfeeding, and the gut microbiome. Experts, which included Dr Vicky Sibson, Professor Louise Kenny, Dr Chris van Tullekan, Goodwood Gut Health Programme Lead, Stephanie Moore and Gabrielle Palmer, author of The Politics of Breastfeeding, shared their views on the first 1000 days of life, the crucial role of early nutrition, and the challenges in improving public health outcomes.
