Food of the Future | Ashil Shah | TEDxJohnLyonSchool

With food becoming less nutritious, can't we make a pill designed to increase our nutrient intake?
Ashil Shah examines what the food of the future may look like, how selective breeding and global warming influences the nutritional content of our food and why supplementing all of our vitamins and minerals into a capsule may not be the answer. Ashil Shah studies Maths, Physics, Chemistry
and Biology at A-Level. Born the youngest
of three, he possesses a curious mind and
gained a keen interest in science having
visited the National Science Museum for the
first time at the age of 12. Ashil is fascinated
by engineering, and how everyday conditions
have a big impact on our lives. After finishing
school Ashil aspires to go to university to
study engineering. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
