AIFC Hosts Positive Nutrition Briefing for Congressional Staff

Written By Ella Daniels

Last week, AIFC held a briefing on positive nutrition for congressional staff to emphasize the importance of including positive nutrition practices in the upcoming Farm Bill and Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

This briefing builds on discussions from AIFC’s positive nutrition roundtable at the Embassy of Italy last November and the resulting white paper, “Positive Nutrition: Shifting the Focus from Nutrients to Diet for a Healthy Lifestyle,” which was recently published in the international scientific journal Eating and Weight Disorders – Studies in Anorexia, Bulimia, and Obesity. Please click here for the full paper.

We extend a special thank you to Dr. Roger Clemens, Dr. Marco Silano, and Dr. Roberta Re for their expertise, and for traveling from Europe and California to participate in the briefing.

AIFC is committed to promoting the inclusion of positive nutrition practices in U.S. policy.
