ILSI Europe organised a session, entitled Food Consumption and Public Health, during the FENS (Federation of European Nutrition Societies) meeting in Madrid (Thursday 27 October 2011; session D2: 11.00 - 13.00).
This session was co-organised by the task forces on Appetite Regulation, Weight Management in Public Health, Metabolic Syndrome & Diabetes, and Risk Assessment of Chemicals in Food.
The session started by addressing scientific considerations of the benefits of satiety to consumers before looking at the determinants of obesity and the metabolic syndrome, topics of work realised by ILSI Europe. Finally a benefit risk analysis of macronutrients replacement was covered. At the end of the session there was room to discuss potential directions for further research in the context of the covered topics.
