The mucosal immune system co-evolves with the microbiota beginning at birth, acquiring the capacity to tolerate components of the community while maintaining the capacity to respond to invading pathogens. The gut microbiota is shaped and regulated by multiple factors including our genomic composition, the local intestinal niche and multiple environmental factors including our nutritional repertoire and bio-geographical location.</p> <p>Dysregulation of these genetic or environmental factors leads to aberrant host-microbiome interactions, ultimately predisposing to pathologies ranging from chronic inflammation, obesity, the metabolic syndrome and even cancer. We have identified various possible mechanisms participating in the reciprocal regulation between the host and the intestinal microbial ecosystem, and demonstrate that disruption of these factors lead to dysbiosis and susceptibility to common multi-factorial disease. Understanding the molecular basis of host-microbiome interactions may lead to development of new microbiome-targeting treatments.</p> <p><strong>Speaker</strong>: Dr. Eran Elinav, The Weizmann Institute</p> <p>The event was supported by IAFNS’ <a href="https://iafns.org/our-work/nutrition/gut-health/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nutrition for Gut Health Committee</a>.</p> </div></div> </div> <div class="fl-module fl-module-video fl-node-08ha6jfb319p" data-node="08ha6jfb319p"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-video fl-embed-video"> <div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe data-placeholder-image="https://iafns.org/wp-content/uploads/complianz/placeholders/youtubecYYu6-UYIZA-maxresdefault.webp" data-category="marketing" data-service="youtube" class="cmplz-placeholder-element cmplz-iframe cmplz-iframe-styles cmplz-video " data-cmplz-target="src" data-src-cmplz="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cYYu6-UYIZA?feature=oembed" data-deferlazy="1" title="Host Microbiome Interactions in Health and Disease" width="1500" height="844" src="about:blank" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> </div></div> </div> </div> </div></div> </p></div> </p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article><!--end post-entry--> <article class="post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-36116 post-loop-3 post-parity-odd single-small with-slider post-36116 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-assembly-on-scientific-integrity"' itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemprop="blogPost" > <div class="entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h2 class='post-title entry-title ' itemprop="headline" > <a href='https://iafns.org/science-based-principles-for-food-classification-based-on-processing-and-formulation-to-support-public-health/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Science-Based Principles for Food Classification Based on Processing and Formulation to Support Public Health'>Science-Based Principles for Food Classification Based on Processing and Formulation to Support Public Health <span class='post-format-icon minor-meta'></span> </a></h2> <span class='post-meta-infos'> <span class='date-container minor-meta updated'>October 23, 2024</span> <span class="blog-categories minor-meta">in <a href="https://iafns.org/category/assembly-on-scientific-integrity/" rel="tag">Assembly on Scientific Integrity</a> </span><span class="text-sep text-sep-cat">/</span><span class="blog-author minor-meta">by <span class="entry-author-link" itemprop="author" ><span class="author"><span class="fn"><a href="https://iafns.org/author/ilsi/" title="Posts by Steven" rel="author">Steven</a></span></span></span></span> </span> </header> <div class="entry-content" itemprop="text" ><div class="fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-36116 fl-builder-content-primary fl-builder-global-templates-locked" data-post-id="36116"> <div class="fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-kjhix1ucdoan fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center" data-node="kjhix1ucdoan"> <div class="fl-row-content-wrap"> <div class="fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-col-group fl-node-e789vhzsak6w" data-node="e789vhzsak6w"> <div class="fl-col fl-node-hie653y8kgvp fl-col-bg-color" data-node="hie653y8kgvp"> <div class="fl-col-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-j0nerp1ov6ga" data-node="j0nerp1ov6ga"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-rich-text"> <p>It is critical to advance consensus across the food and nutrition community on the evidence requirements for classifying foods based on processing and formulation to promote public health. Controversy has marked discussions about processed foods and what is classified as a processed food versus “ultra-processed foods” (UPFs). In meeting 7 of the 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC), members noted that a better definition of UPFs is required for evidence synthesis to successfully proceed.</p> <p>The goal of this effort is to deliver Principles which researchers can agree are representative of the evidence required to classify foods based on processing and formulation. An independent Writing Team comprised of public sector scientists will lead the drafting of the Principles. The draft Principles will undergo iterative feedback from the broader food and nutrition community through a variety of mechanisms. The feedback will be considered by the Writing Team as they refine the Principles prior to submission to a peer-reviewed journal.</p> <p><strong>Writing Team: </strong></p> <p>Jodi Bernstein, PhD RD, JB Medical Writing</p> <p>Andrew Brown, PhD, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences</p> <p>Mario Estevez Garcia, PhD, Universidad de Extremadura</p> <p>Britt Burton Freeman, PhD, Illinois Institute of Technology</p> <p>Julie Hess, PhD, USDA ARS</p> <p>Patrice Hubert, PhD RD, Monell Chemical Senses</p> <p><strong>Year:</strong> 2024</p> <p>View this project on the Center for Open Science's <a href="https://osf.io/ewugt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Open Science Framework</a></p> <p>This work was supported by the IAFNS <a href="https://iafns.org/our-work/nutrition/food-classification/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><u>Food Classification Working Group</u></a></p> </div></div> </div> </div> </div></div> </p></div> </p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article><!--end post-entry--> <article class="post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-35927 post-loop-4 post-parity-even single-small with-slider post-35927 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-ce-no-credit"' itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemprop="blogPost" > <div class="entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h2 class='post-title entry-title ' itemprop="headline" > <a href='https://iafns.org/menopause-cognition-and-nutrition-understanding-the-intersection/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Menopause, Cognition and Nutrition: Understanding the Intersection'>Menopause, Cognition and Nutrition: Understanding the Intersection <span class='post-format-icon minor-meta'></span> </a></h2> <span class='post-meta-infos'> <span class='date-container minor-meta updated'>September 19, 2024</span> <span class="blog-categories minor-meta">in <a href="https://iafns.org/category/ce-no-credit/" rel="tag">CE No Credit</a> </span><span class="text-sep text-sep-cat">/</span><span class="blog-author minor-meta">by <span class="entry-author-link" itemprop="author" ><span class="author"><span class="fn"><a href="https://iafns.org/author/ilsi/" title="Posts by Steven" rel="author">Steven</a></span></span></span></span> </span> </header> <div class="entry-content" itemprop="text" ><div class="fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-35927 fl-builder-content-primary fl-builder-global-templates-locked" data-post-id="35927"> <div class="fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-ix3w06o9hsug fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center" data-node="ix3w06o9hsug"> <div class="fl-row-content-wrap"> <div class="fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-col-group fl-node-xm6h05wdebri" data-node="xm6h05wdebri"> <div class="fl-col fl-node-f5h689tgoail fl-col-bg-color" data-node="f5h689tgoail"> <div class="fl-col-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-3ua9bcv78650" data-node="3ua9bcv78650"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-rich-text"> <p><strong>Recorded Sept. 11, 2024</strong></p> <p>Description:</p> <p>With the continued focus on incorporating diverse populations into health research, women’s health has received substantial attention with regard to preventing diseases and better treating medical conditions.

Low- and No-Calorie Sweeteners (LNCS) — also referred to as non-sugar sweeteners or non-nutritive sweeteners — are common tools for reducing sugar intake while maintaining palatability. However, their use for body weight management remains controversial. This is due, in part, to conflicting conclusions drawn from systematic reviews and meta-analyses published in recent years on LNCS</p> <p>While these publications aim to systematically and objectively compile evidence to address the question “What is the effect of LNCS consumption on body weight?,” they alternately conclude that LNCS have beneficial, neutral, or detrimental effects on body weight, depending on the study. Therefore, developing dietary recommendations for LNCS and body weight management is challenging, given the underlying studies don’t come to consistent conclusions.</p> <p>This webinar presents research conducted at the USDA Agricultural Research Service-Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center, describing how systematic review methodologies influence the findings produced when investigating the association between LNCS consumption and body weight.</p> <p>Speaker: Kelly Higgins, PhD, Exponent (formerly USDA-ARS Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center)</p> </div></div> </div> <div class="fl-module fl-module-video fl-node-ut4b7s6k0rhg" data-node="ut4b7s6k0rhg"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-video fl-embed-video"> <div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe data-placeholder-image="https://iafns.org/wp-content/uploads/complianz/placeholders/youtubekMYDH6wd8Tw-maxresdefault.webp" data-category="marketing" data-service="youtube" class="cmplz-placeholder-element cmplz-iframe cmplz-iframe-styles cmplz-video " data-cmplz-target="src" data-src-cmplz="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kMYDH6wd8Tw?feature=oembed" data-deferlazy="1" title="Low & No Calorie Sweeteners: What Does the Science Really Say" width="1500" height="844" src="about:blank" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> </div></div> </div> </div> </div></div> </p></div> </p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article><!--end post-entry--> <article class="post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-35291 post-loop-6 post-parity-even single-small with-slider post-35291 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-ce-no-credit"' itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemprop="blogPost" > <div class="entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h2 class='post-title entry-title ' itemprop="headline" > <a href='https://iafns.org/cognitive-benefits-of-nutrition-aligning-perceptions-with-the-science/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Cognitive Benefits of Nutrition: Aligning Perceptions with the Science'>Cognitive Benefits of Nutrition: Aligning Perceptions with the Science <span class='post-format-icon minor-meta'></span> </a></h2> <span class='post-meta-infos'> <span class='date-container minor-meta updated'>June 25, 2024</span> <span class="blog-categories minor-meta">in <a href="https://iafns.org/category/ce-no-credit/" rel="tag">CE No Credit</a> </span><span class="text-sep text-sep-cat">/</span><span class="blog-author minor-meta">by <span class="entry-author-link" itemprop="author" ><span class="author"><span class="fn"><a href="https://iafns.org/author/ilsi/" title="Posts by Steven" rel="author">Steven</a></span></span></span></span> </span> </header> <div class="entry-content" itemprop="text" ><div class="fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-35291 fl-builder-content-primary fl-builder-global-templates-locked" data-post-id="35291"> <div class="fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-71lew5ukn8bf fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center" data-node="71lew5ukn8bf"> <div class="fl-row-content-wrap"> <div class="fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-col-group fl-node-24m0qsdxtpuk" data-node="24m0qsdxtpuk"> <div class="fl-col fl-node-uf624yga0t59 fl-col-bg-color" data-node="uf624yga0t59"> <div class="fl-col-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-f659lcsa84pw" data-node="f659lcsa84pw"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-rich-text"> <p>Recorded June 20, 2024</p> <p><strong>Description:</strong></p> <p>Consumers report that cognitive and affective outcomes (such as mood) are key motivations for dietary behaviors. However, the cognitive benefits that patients and consumers seek can be highly individual and may be described in different ways. In addition, these benefits may or may not be impacted by the dietary behavior that they choose to implement. Understanding the specific short- and long-term benefits individuals are expecting is important both for conducting experimental research and for developing and communicating evidence-based nutrition recommendations related to cognitive health.</p> <p>In this session, qualitative research investigating the perceptions of individuals that seek out foods and other products for “brain benefits” will be presented. Speakers will then describe the degree to which these consumer-articulated “benefits” can be demonstrated using validated cognitive research tools. This work points to connections and disconnects between benefits that individuals seek, the effects they report, and what science demonstrates is possible in the realm of foods, nutrients, supplements and cognitive benefits.

These professionals are often called upon to provide advice regarding the importance of diet in caries prevention and can benefit from education on the role of sugars and nonnutritive sweeteners in caries formation and health. As such, they must be familiar with alternatives to sugar and the types of food products that are available with non-cariogenic sweetening agents. The American Dental Association (ADA) policies on diet and nutrition encourages members to obtain continuing education to learn more about the relationship between diet, nutrition, and oral health and encourage collaborations with stakeholders to understand the latest science-based nutrition recommendations and raise interprofessional awareness.</p> <p><strong>Phase I</strong>: IAFNS staff will work with oral health experts and members of the American Dental Association to develop an educational symposium for dental health professionals to educate then in the following areas:</p> <ul> <li>Safety & efficacy of LNCS and LNCS as a substitute for sugar and effects on sugar consumption and body weight</li> <li>The anti and non-cariogenic properties of NNS- what is known and where more research is needed</li> <li>Dietary patterns associated with dental caries, prevention, and recommendations</li> </ul> <p><strong>Phase II:</strong> The Symposium will be submitted to the Greater NY Dental Meeting and or another scientific conference for dental health professionals for 2025. The results of the symposium will be drafted into a review paper for submission for publication in the Journal of the American Dental Association.</p> <p><strong>Project Lead</strong>: Trish Zecca</p> <p><strong>Start Date</strong>: May 2024</p> <p>This work is supported by the IAFNS <a href="https://iafns.org/our-work/nutrition/low-calorie-sweeteners/">Low- and No-Calorie Sweeteners Committee</a></p> </div></div> </div> </div> </div></div> </p></div> </p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article><!--end post-entry--> <article class="post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-35031 post-loop-9 post-parity-odd single-small with-slider post-35031 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-gut-microbiome"' itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemprop="blogPost" > <div class="entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h2 class='post-title entry-title ' itemprop="headline" > <a href='https://iafns.org/documenting-the-continuum-of-measures-from-health-to-disease/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Documenting the Continuum of Measures from Health to Disease'>Documenting the Continuum of Measures from Health to Disease <span class='post-format-icon minor-meta'></span> </a></h2> <span class='post-meta-infos'> <span class='date-container minor-meta updated'>May 21, 2024</span> <span class="blog-categories minor-meta">in <a href="https://iafns.org/category/nutrition/gut-microbiome/" rel="tag">Gut Microbiome</a> </span><span class="text-sep text-sep-cat">/</span><span class="blog-author minor-meta">by <span class="entry-author-link" itemprop="author" ><span class="author"><span class="fn"><a href="https://iafns.org/author/ilsi/" title="Posts by Steven" rel="author">Steven</a></span></span></span></span> </span> </header> <div class="entry-content" itemprop="text" ><div class="fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-35031 fl-builder-content-primary fl-builder-global-templates-locked" data-post-id="35031"> <div class="fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-6w1sv2yi9n05 fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center" data-node="6w1sv2yi9n05"> <div class="fl-row-content-wrap"> <div class="fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-col-group fl-node-74oceq2tbf0n" data-node="74oceq2tbf0n"> <div class="fl-col fl-node-i9qgzrplhvfo fl-col-bg-color" data-node="i9qgzrplhvfo"> <div class="fl-col-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-a2iqgkdylbpj" data-node="a2iqgkdylbpj"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-rich-text"> <p>In a 2011 paper titled “Gut Health: A New Objective in Medicine?” (Bischoff), it was noted that gut health is recognized as a “desirable aim and an important physiological condition required for overall good health.” Since the gut microbiome research boom which followed this paper, even more attention has been focused on the gut as impactful to health – across many systems.</p> <p>The 2011 paper discusses the lack of a consensus definition and offers a table of assessments or measures. For example, there exist various validated physiological indicators of inflammation, motility, or permeability. In addition, there are subjective assessments of discomfort, bowel habits, and other indicators. Although it is implied that “gut health” lies somewhere along the continuum of each of these measures, there is an opportunity to better understand how it is conceptualized and the degree of measure validation.</p> <p>One step toward arriving at agreement on the concept of "gut health" is better understanding available measures and their interpretation, starting with an update of the Bischoff work. By clarifying this concept, it may be possible to identify interventions (foods, diets, supplements) that promote health through the gut and downstream systemic benefits.</p> <p><strong>Institution</strong>: EpidStrategies, LLC</p> <p><strong>Principal Investigator</strong>: Cara Frankenfeld, PhD</p> <p><strong>Year Awarded</strong>: 2024</p> <p>View this project on the Center for Open Science's <a href="https://osf.io/trjud/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Open Science Framework</a></p> <p>This work is supported by the IAFNS <a href="https://iafns.org/our-work/nutrition/gut-health/">Nutrition for Gut Health Committee</a></p> </div></div> </div> </div> </div></div> </p></div> </p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article><!--end post-entry--> <article class="post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-34916 post-loop-10 post-parity-even post-entry-last single-small with-slider post-34916 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-ce-no-credit"' itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemprop="blogPost" > <div class="entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h2 class='post-title entry-title ' itemprop="headline" > <a href='https://iafns.org/host-microbiota-interactions-a-personalized-point-of-view/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Host Microbiota Interactions: A Personalized Point of View'>Host Microbiota Interactions: A Personalized Point of View <span class='post-format-icon minor-meta'></span> </a></h2> <span class='post-meta-infos'> <span class='date-container minor-meta updated'>April 23, 2024</span> <span class="blog-categories minor-meta">in <a href="https://iafns.org/category/ce-no-credit/" rel="tag">CE No Credit</a> </span><span class="text-sep text-sep-cat">/</span><span class="blog-author minor-meta">by <span class="entry-author-link" itemprop="author" ><span class="author"><span class="fn"><a href="https://iafns.org/author/ilsi/" title="Posts by Steven" rel="author">Steven</a></span></span></span></span> </span> </header> <div class="entry-content" itemprop="text" ><div class="fl-builder-content fl-builder-content-34916 fl-builder-content-primary fl-builder-global-templates-locked" data-post-id="34916"> <div class="fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-kigzcyqos7en fl-row-default-height fl-row-align-center" data-node="kigzcyqos7en"> <div class="fl-row-content-wrap"> <div class="fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-col-group fl-node-wj7ncg0s21di" data-node="wj7ncg0s21di"> <div class="fl-col fl-node-hx7cqano8sdj fl-col-bg-color" data-node="hx7cqano8sdj"> <div class="fl-col-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-80c4hjw62p35" data-node="80c4hjw62p35"> <div class="fl-module-content fl-node-content"> <div class="fl-rich-text"> <p>Recorded April 18, 2024</p> <p><strong>Description:</strong></p> <p>The laboratory of Dr. Benoit Chassaing, Team Leader at INSERM located at Institut Pasteur in Paris, focuses on mucosal microbiota in chronic inflammatory diseases. The central objective of his research team is to study the composition and function of the microbiota at the mucosal surface, in both health and disease states, and using both pre-clinical models and clinical approaches. In this presentation, Dr. Chassaing covered recent advances made toward a better understanding of the central role played by mucus-associated bacteria in chronic inflammatory diseases, as well as the extent to which microbiota assessment will enable, in the coming years, precision nutrition and medicine.</p> <p>The event was supported by the <a
