One
of the purposes of
the Nestle Nutrition
Fund (NNF) is to foster
scientific research
on nutrition. With
that in mind, the
NNF has created the
Nestle Nutrition Conference,
which aims at stimulating
the critic discussion
of actual topics related
with nutrition problems
in Mexico. |
The
format of the conference
comprises a foreign lecturer,
followed by a local (national)
commentator, and a general
discussion. The expositions,
comments, and discussions
are published in the international
magazine Nutrition Reviews.
The
Conference takes place on
a biannual basis, lasts
two days, and is organized
in coordination with the
Instituto Nacional de Ciencias
Médicas y Nutrición
Salvador Zubiran (Salvador
Zubiran National Institute
of Medical Sciences and
Nutrition)
Up
to now, three Nestle Nutrition
Conferences have been organized:
the content of the first
two has been published in
Nutrition Reviews, and the
third one is about to be
published.

of nutrition in the two
