Presented by CAIEP in collaboration with: UNE Planetary Health Council (PHC), under the umbrella of the new Shaw Institute of Public and Planetary Health

“The most significant thing I learned from today's presentation is that you have to be very careful when analyzing online claims about different food and nutrition products. Health professions teams need to make evidence-based choices for both the benefit of their patients and their community as a whole.”
