Presentation

The Nestle Fund for Nutrition, alongside with the Mexican Association of Medicine Faculties and Schools have developed for several years different activities to promote nutrition teaching at medicine faculties and schools in Mexico.

The organization of a Ciclo de Seminarios, dealing with medical "nutriology", is one of these activities. The purpose of the seminaries is to divulge medical "nutriology" topics that can be of interest to general medics, with an emphasis on training teachers at medicine schools. The seminaries have thrown out positive results as regards assistance and dissemination of the presented knowledge. Their success is due to a combination of factors: on the one hand there's the close relationship between the interests in Nutriology and the interests in medical specialties, thanks to a joint organization with the respective Medical Associations, and on the other hand, the dissemination made possible by the divulging bodies of each society.

The financial and logistic support is supplied by the NNF alongside with Nestle Mexico S.A. de C.V.

The third seminary took place on April 25, 1998 at the Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI (National Centre of Medicine Century XXI), with the cooperation of the Internal Medicine Association of Mexico, A.C. It deals with Nutriology for people with diabetes mellitus. The topic was selected for its special importance in the dietetic management of its patients.

The Internal Medicine Association of Mexico invited as lecturers members of its corporation specialized on the topic, and other specialists dealing with food technology and the dietetic aspects of the topic.
