The next IUFoST Scientific Roundtable Discussion (SRD) "Precision Nutrition and Food Science Strategies to Combat Persistent Metabolic Challenges Associated with Long-COVID" is scheduled for 29 February, from 07.30 ET (North America) GMT-5.
Nutritional intervention is an important aspect of recovery from and management of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), or long COVID, that often concomitantly presents severe inflammation, malnutrition, and sarcopenia, especially in those with pre-existing health conditions, and typically at risk of adverse health events, such as among pediatric populations, the elderly, and women of childbearing age. An adequate food supply and availability of foods that contain an array of potential bioactives may be critical in reducing risks associated with PASC, the ongoing global health crisis. Expert speakers include Roger Clemens, DrPH, Adj Professor, USC School of Pharmacy: Narain Naidu, PhD, Director-General, Mission-COVID, Global Nutrition Healthcare Council, Pingfan Rao, PhD, Fuzhou University; Chin-Kun Wang, Chung Shan Medical University; Jailene de Sousa Aquino, PhD, Federal University of Paraiba; Jun Nishihira, MD, PhD, Hokkaido Information University.
