This Nutrion Society Meeting will highlight recent scientific developments, current understanding and debate surrounding micronutrient deficiency and requirements across the life-course. The four symposia of the conference will cover the topics of the importance and impacts of vitamin and mineral deficiencies in aging and disease; sarcopenia, frailty, osteosarcopenic obesity and bariatric surgery.
The symposia also cover the emerging issue of the ‘double burden of disease’ in low- and middle-income countries as well as the importance of micronutrients during pregnancy, and neural development in childhood. Speakers will also focus on how issues of micronutrient malnutrition can be addressed, differences in micronutrient requirements across the life course and the development of dietary recommendations.
