Could the future of health be hidden in citrus peels? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Andrew Tait, biochemist, entrepreneur, and founder of Tait Laboratories Inc., to explore how he and his team are transforming overlooked citrus peels into cutting-edge health and food innovation solutions. Andrew’s journey began with a focus on multiple sclerosis (MS) research, where he first explored the potential of citrus compounds. His discoveries uncovered the remarkable benefits of polyphenols and bioflavonoids, leading him to develop a patented clean extraction technology that turns citrus waste into high-value functional ingredients for wellness and food applications. Driven by scientific curiosity and an entrepreneurial mindset, Andrew shares: Citrus peels & prebiotics – How their bioactive compounds support gut and metabolic health. Ancient citrus wisdom – Why rare Mandarin varietals hold even more benefits and nutritional potency. The entrepreneurial journey – Lessons in curiosity, collaboration, and turning science into a business. From rethinking food waste to unlocking ancient citrus wisdom, Andrew’s work is a masterclass in science-driven innovation with real-world impact.
