IAFNS 2021 Annual Meeting Session 5

Thursday, June 17th, 2:00-3:30pm ET

Changes in the food supply intended to benefit health can have potential unintended effects. This session will engage stakeholders in dialogue about assessing and balancing nutrition tradeoffs when making decisions associated with large-scale food supply changes.
