Track 4: Nutritional Disorders

Nutritional diseases are the nutrient-related diseases and conditions that cause illness in humans. They may include deficiencies or excesses in the diet, obesity and eating disorders, and chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. Nutritional diseases also include developmental abnormalities that can be prevented by diet, hereditary metabolic disorders that respond to the interaction of foods, dietary treatment and nutrients with drugs, intolerances and food allergies, and potential hazards in the food supply. Malnutrition is the impaired function that results from a prolonged deficiency—or excess—of total energy or specific nutrients such as protein, vitamins, essential fatty acids, or minerals. This condition can result from fasting and anorexia nervosa; impaired digestion and intestinal malabsorption; persistent vomiting (as in bulimia nervosa) or inability to swallow; or chronic illnesses that result in loss of appetite (e.g., cancer, AIDS). Malnutrition can also result from unwise food choices, limited food availability, or overzealous use of dietary supplements.

Track 7: Probiotics and Prebiotics

Probiotics are live microorganisms which when consumed may confer a health benefit to the host. Certain species of Bifi dobacteria spp. and Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are commonly used in the manufacture of probiotic products because of their well-known beneficial effect to host health and they are Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS). Many studies have shown that probiotics can stimulate the immune system, alleviate lactose intolerance, decrease serum cholesterol, decrease the diarrheal incidence, control infections, act as antibiotics, suppress tumors and protect against colon/bladder cancer. Prebiotics are the food ingredients which are indigestible in the upper GI tract and reach the colon to beneficially influence the host by selectively promoting the growth and/or activity of certain bacteria in the colon. Consumers often take in moderate levels of prebiotics naturally from many fruits and vegetables including chicory, onion, leeks, garlic, banana, and asparagus. Thus, prebiotics is commercially extracted and concentrated from fruits and vegetables through the hydrolysis of polysaccharides from starch or dietary fibers, or through enzymatic generation. Prebiotics are mixtures of indigestible oligosaccharides, except for inulin which is a mixture of poly and fructooligosaccharides.

Track 9: Dairy Products

Dairy product, milk and any of the foods made from milk, including ice cream, yogurt, butter, cheese, and condensed and dried milk. Although milk is a liquid and often considered as a drink, it contains between 12 and 13 percent total solids and perhaps should be regarded as a food. In contrast, many solid foods, such as carrots, tomatoes, and lettuce, contain as little as 6 percent solids. The major components of milk are water, carbohydrate (lactose), fat, protein, and minerals (ash). However, there are numerous other highly important micronutrients such as essential amino acids, vitamins, and trace minerals.

Track 15: Dosage and Delivery Technique

Delivery systems are the means by which maximum nutritional benefits are achieved from nutraceuticals. An effective delivery system should be designed to promote the efficacy of nutrients by increasing bioavailability and minimizing loss of nutrients. Due to various intrinsic degradation and metabolic processes in the body, this goal may be difficult to achieve in formulation and manufacturing. In recent years, a great deal of emphasis has been placed on innovative ways to deliver nutraceutical ingredients while maintaining safety and effectiveness. Although conventional delivery systems such as tablets, hard shell capsules, and powders are consistent and cost-effective to manufacture, customer demand drives the desire for more innovative ways to achieve this objective. Manufacturers often see alternative delivery systems as another way to distinguish their products to gain the competitive edge. Innovation in this area is well justified and will continue as long as there is market demand.
