Should we have dietary recommendations for specific phytochemicals - beyond nutrients?

We will discuss at a round table this afternoon in London: nutritionsociety.org/events/phytoch…

#phytochemical and health SIG - Prof. Wendy Russell Prof Wendy Russell speaks about microbiota-directed diets - proteins and fibre modulation, metabolites and bioactives profiles

#phytochemicals and health SIG - now focusing on interaction with the microbiota with Kieran Tuohy, including some data from Nutrition Glasgow colleague Thanasis Koutsos

#phytochemicals and health SIG - Jeannine Baumgartner gives a perspective on polyphenolics and iron homeostasis, with potential for iron-accumulation disorders. Super interesting isotope studies.

#phytochemicals and health SIG day 2! James Hutton Institute Gordon McDougall kicks off the bioavailability session with a berry focus 🍓

always great to see Scottish Alliance for Food (SCAF) members at the meeting! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Phytochemical and health SIG meeting at KCL today - many friends and colleagues in one big room - with a kick off talk by Christine Bösch (University of Leeds) on betalains, followed by a perspective on cardiovascular disease prevention and treatment by Christian Heiss

📅 May 28th - 1pm
👁‍🗨 come hear about research on #livestockmicrobiota
🙌 Dr Laura Glendinning & Dr Mick Watson
🙋‍♂️ followed by discussion

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @scaf_ARC webinars showcase the work of researchers and stakeholders working on #food in #scotland - all are welcome to attend!

'🎊 Mission accomplished ✨️ Still excited as ever before stepping onto the big stage. Glad to share research on low-carb diets and risk of vitamin deficiency at the European Congress on Obesity in Venice, Italy #ECO2024

#eco2024 time for the New Investigator Award session! looking forward to hearing about three exciting projects - our Association for the Study of Obesity UK colleague Laura A Gray is presenting at 6.15pm #publichealth

#eco2024 - M Blüher -
powerful intersection of obesogenic exposome and our lives breaking the boundaries of planetary health - economic driving forces, profits and human nature. We need to integrate the biomedical and public health approaches.

#eco2024 - Chaitong Churuangsuk MD shares his data about low carb diets, ⬇️ micronutrient status & ⬆️ markers of cardiometabolic health

#eco2024 - Marie Moller Jensen -
gastrointestinal disorder in obesity! Cool use of ingestable capsule to measure transit time; no effect of time restricted eating (TRE) on transit time or gatrointestinal sysmptoms in this population with obesity and high risk of T2D

#ECO2024 - SR & MA by Nerys Astbury - greater chance of unassisted pregnancy after weight loss - weight loss generally modest.

#ECO2024 - always good to catch up with Nutrition Glasgow alumni: looking forward to Chaitong Churuangsuk MD s talk on low carb diet, thiamine and cardiometabolic health markers at 1pm in Darsena!

#ECO2024 - in NutriNet-Santé, Pauline Duquenne shows sex differences in the link between anxiety-insomnia comorbidities and incident obesity

Check out Giang Nguyen #ECO2024 green communication on pregnant women's experience of food insecurity - reporting barriers in access to food, impact on physical and mental health, and their coping strategies

EASO

#eco2024 - congratulations to Becky Evans, best thesis awardee, and to all candidates!

Another congratulations to Association for the Study of Obesity UK ECR member Kath Williamson shortlisted for the EASO best thesis award at #ECO2024 !

#ECO2024 - Albert Lecube starts with a big question: 'why do we need translational research?' and goes through the myths of what makes good research(ers).

Obesities - a collection of diseases, multiple contributors, not a choice -> adiposity-based chronic disease.
