CNS 2024 Thematic Conference

Advances in Research & Practice - Non-nutritive sweeteners & health: Unravelling the evidence & controversy is a one-day conference that will address the role of non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) as a replacement for sugars, summarize the evidence on NNS and health outcomes and reconcile the discrepancies.  

Taking place on January 27, 2024 as an in-person conference in Toronto and via live stream, the CNS Thematic Conference provides a premier interdisciplinary platform that brings together multiple sectors within the nutrition community, including healthcare professionals, food and nutrition scientists, academia, industry, government and other not for profit organizations to exchange knowledge about the latest research developments, current evidence, and best practices on this highly relevant topic.  A comprehensive understanding of the evidence on NNS and health is needed to guide practitioners and policy makers in helping the population achieve free sugar targets for optimal health.   

This year's Thematic Conference has EIGHT Exhibitor spots available to offer opportunities to profile products, services, and initiatives that may be of interest to our audience. The exhibitor space is set up in a high traffic area and is open throughout the day, particularly early morning (breakfast) two breaks and a lunch period. 

Only EIGHT spots available - Act fast!
