Applying Complex Research Evidence To Inform Nutrition Messaging

The Academy's three Position Papers on the use of evidence to inform nutrition recommendations are the focus of a series of free-to-attend webinars hosted by the British Dietetic Association in May 2024, which explore the challenges identified and the recommendations made in the Position Papers. 

Registration and details of speakers for the lunch-time sessions can be accessed here.

The first webinar on 7 May will examine how dietary recommendations are formulated for populations for prevention of non-communicable diseases (Williams et al., 2021). The second on 15 May looks at how research evidence can be used to guide individualised nutrition interventions during one-to-one consultations (Hickson et al 2024), and the focus of the third is use of evidence to support health claims for specific foods (Ashwell et al., 2022).

Recordings of the webinars will be free to access and available here after the events have taken place.
