Evaluating the Role of Protein in Public Health: A Research Summary – Protein Summit 2.0
Protein Summit 2.0, a follow-up of the first Protein Summit in 2007, was held October 2-3, 2013, and provided an opportunity for more than 60 food and nutrition experts from several countries to review and discuss the latest research on the role of protein in human health. Discussions also focused on identification of effective strategies to help health professionals translate protein science to optimize their clients’ protein intake for health and combat misperceptions related to protein.
