The School of Pharmacy and Nutrition held on November 15 and 16 in Madrid the second edition of the conference of update in Nutrition. These meetings, which have accumulated 13 editions in Pamplona, have also been held for the last two years at the Campus that the University of Navarra has in the capital. They aim to provide a current and applied vision on aspects related to nutrition and food for the professional internship of the dietitian-nutritionist and other health professionals. 

Under the degree scroll "Nutritional wellness and quality of life", four round tables were organized to address current issues such as sugars, sweeteners and fats in relation to health, the role of oxygen in treating obesity, conventional and novel strategies for weight loss and personalized nutrition at different stages of life.

In addition, the invited experts discussed other topics such as front-of-pack food labeling, the current trend in beverage consumption or the latest trends in community food, especially in school canteens and in the university environment, as well as innovation in gastronomy in hospital diets.

After the various presentations, a time was offered at discussion during which the 45 participants were able to exchange experiences with the speakers and other attendees.

These conference are accredited by the Commission of training Continuous of Navarra of the System of accreditation of the training Continuous of the health professions in the National Health System.
