Other YINI Symposium

Nutritional recommendations for bone and muscle health, WCO 2015, Milan

WCO - Milan

The World Congress on Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis and Musculoskeletal diseases (WCO) continues to be one of the primary forum for scientists to focus on the impact of nutrition on bone health in general. As a part of the WCO, the Yogurt in Nutrition Initiative for a Balanced Diet organized a satellite symposium which featured many global comparisons in diet and the effect on bone.

This WCO-IOF-ESCEO 2015 Congress*, which was held in Milan, from March 26 to March 29 is the largest event worldwide, fully dedicated to the clinical and economic aspects of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal diseases and gathers more than 3500 delegates. As Western diet permeates more of the globe and the population continues to grow, it is meaningful to study the impact of these changes on bone health as diet is one of the few major modifiable factors which in turn affects healthcare costs. Calcium, vitamin D, and protein intake continued to dominate the discussion. The slideshow thereafter allow the reader to capture the new messages and to analyze the new scientific data presented by Professor Rene Rizzoli, Professor of Medicine at the University Hospital of Geneva, Switzerland, in this field during this YINI’s symposium.
