Quebec City The only walled city north of Mexico, is proud of a history blending French and English influences – from the stone walls that encircle the old city and the Citadelle keeping watch over the St. Lawrence to the Martello towers and the Parliament Building, where Quebec politics have been played out for over a century. Along with the rich historical heritage revealed in every single stone, the city is home to world-class cultural facilities. And for the shoppers – Old Quebec is home to dozens of delightful boutiques and many of its streets have become ‘shopping musts’. The Canadian Nutrition Society/Societe canadienne de nutrition (CNS-SCN) is the leading society integrating disciplines and professions interested in nutrition. We promote nutrition science and education, and advocate for the application of best practice and policies for the promotion of health and the prevention and treatment of disease in Canada and abroad.

Dr. Vicky Drapeau, PhD, Dt.P Laval University Quebec, QC Susceptibility to overeating can play an important role in the etiology of obesity. This symposium will consider the role of homeostatic and hedonic processes in susceptibility to overeating, and strategies to manage this behavior among adults. More specifically, it will discuss whether susceptibility to overeating is mediated by variations in homeostatic processes, such as weak satiety responses or by hedonic processes, such as hyperresponsivity to the sensory properties of food. The biopsychobehavioural characteristics of this phenotype will also be reviewed in this symposium. Finally, behavioural and nutritional strategies that have the potential to influence both homeostatic and hedonic processes will be presented. SPEAKERS: • Are We All Equal Regarding Appetite Control? The Case of the Low Satiety Phenotype.

FRIDAY, MAY 31 – 2:00pm – 3:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: NUTRITION MISCONCEPTIONS – THE ROLE OF THE MEDIA AND THE RESEARCHER: SUGAR – A CASE STUDY CHAIR:
Dr. Tristin Brisbois, PhD Canadian Sugar Institute Toronto, ON Nutrition is a complicated field, filled with misconceptions regarding what constitutes a “healthy” versus “unhealthy” diet. These misconceptions can be perpetuated in the media through the use of sensational headlines or if the results of scientific studies are misreported or over-generalized. Often research is publicized without clarifying its relevance to practice, such as limited translatability to the general population or small effect size. Sugars are an example of a controversial nutrition topic often in the media spotlight. The media suggests that we are consuming too much sugar and this is harmful to our health. But how much are we actually consuming and how much is too much? This symposium will review available Canadian data on 8
sugar consumption and will explore the scientific findings regarding sugars’ effect on body weight and other health outcomes. Various issues in sugar-related research will be addressed and compared to media headlines to help critically evaluate nutrition-related media articles. SPEAKERS: • Common Misconceptions About Sugars – Consumption and Dietary Goals Dr. Tristin Brisbois, PhD Canadian Sugar Institute, Toronto, ON • Maintaining Perspective in Research and the Media: The Not So Toxic Truth About Sugar Dr. John Sievenpiper, MD, PhD St. Michael’s Hospital, Toronto, ON • Oral Abstract Presentations
FRIDAY, MAY 31 – 2:00pm – 3:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: CANOLA OIL MULTI-CENTRE INTERVENTION TRIAL: STUDY OVERVIEW AND PRELIMINARY RESULTS CHAIRS:
Dr. Peter Jones, PhD University of Manitoba Winnipeg, MB
Dr. Benoit Lamarche, PhD Laval University Quebec, QC
Canola Oil Multicentre Intervention Trial (COMIT) was a multi-center randomized controlled cross-over study intended to investigate effects of five different kinds of dietary oils on cardiovascular health parameters in individuals with abdominal obesity. COMIT was undertaken at three clinical sites including Winnipeg, Quebec City, and State College, PA. Participants were recruited based on meeting criteria for metabolic syndrome. Dietary oils that were investigated were (i) canola oil, high oleic canola oil, high oleic canola oil enriched with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), flax and safflower oil blended, and corn and safflower oil blended with respective n-9:n-6:n-3 ratios of 6:2:1, 31:6:1, 6:1:1, 1:1:1 and 61:239:1. These dietary oil treatments enabled comparison of effects of n-3, n-6 and n-9 oils under a controlled full-feeding environment. Outcome measurements included endothelial function, blood lipids, fatty acid conversion studies and biomarkers of inflammation. Compliance was evaluated by shifts in DHA levels in plasma. One hundred seventy volunteers were recruited with an overall dropout rate of 23.5%. The number of participants who completed the study protocol was 130. Mean plasma DHA concentrations, which were analyzed in a subset of participants as a measure of compliance, increased by more than 100% in the DHA-enriched phase, compared to other phases. In conclusion, the recruitment and retention strategies were effective in achieving sufficient number of participants who completed the study protocol to enable sufficient statistical power to resolve modest differences in primary outcome and secondary endpoint measurements. It is expected that the study will generate considerable amount of data that enhance our understanding of the cardiovascular effects of n-3, n-6 and n-9 oils. SPEAKERS: • Effects of Dietary Oils Varying in Fatty Acid Composition on Lipid Profiles and Cardiovascular Risk Scores in the Canola Oil Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (COMIT) Dr. Peter Jones, PhD University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB • Oral Abstract Presentations
FRIDAY, MAY 31 – 2:00pm – 3:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: THE DOUBLE BURDEN OF MALNUTRITION IN LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES: EXAMPLES OF ACTION CHAIR:
Dr. Katherine Gray-Donald, PhD McGill University Montreal, QC 9
More than 800 million people around the world are undernourished while more than 1 billion adults are overweight and at least 300 million of them are clinically obese. In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), the prevalence of child stunting as indicator of undernutrition is 24%; obesity rates have risen three-fold since 1980. In sub-Saharan Africa, the prevalence rate of child stunting remains above 35% in several countries while obesity and co-morbidities are rising particularly in cities. A rapid nutrition transition away from traditional food practices and lifestyles is in large part responsible for the double burden of malnutrition. Particularly in the MENA region, delocalization of resources and environmental degradation accompany the nutrition transition. An Ecohealth approach to human health focusing on both food and the environment has been applied in Lebanon through the project Food and Health in Rural Lebanon: Options to Improve Dietary Diversity, Food Security, Livelihoods and Ecosystem Management. Studies in urban Benin and Burkina Faso (West Africa) have featured the double burden of malnutrition at community, household and even individual level, with women and low-income groups being at higher risk. A University of Montreal partnership project with academic institutions of Benin and other West-African countries, and focusing on the double burden of malnutrition, has been underway since 2008. The goal is to strengthen institutional capacity to tackle the double burden of under-and overnutrition through academic training of public health nutritionists, action research, and sensitization of the population and decision-makers. We believe that such programs have potential for alleviating the escalating problems of inadequate nutrition, and that the experience deserves sharing with the Canadian nutrition community. This is the purpose of this symposium on international nutrition. SPEAKERS: • An Ecohealth Approach to the Nutrition Transition in the Middle East Dr. Malek Batal, PhD University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON • Six Years of Partnership with West-African Institutions to Address the Double Burden of Malnutrition Dr. Helene Delisle, PhD University of Montreal, Montreal, QC • Oral Abstract Presentations

FRIDAY, MAY 31 – 4:00pm – 5:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: UNDERSTANDING UNDER-CONSUMPTION OF MILK PRODUCTS AMONG CANADIANS CHAIR:
Ms. Nathalie Savoie, MBA, RD Dairy Farmers of Canada Montreal, QC A large proportion of Canadians, from all age groups, are not meeting the minimum recommended servings of milk products according to Canada’s Food Guide based on the most recent national survey of Canadian dietary intakes. In this session, we
10
will explore potential reasons for this under consumption of milk products by Canadians. Research highlighting barriers to milk product consumption, salient beliefs underlying the consumption of milk products and the impact of removing chocolate milk from schools will be presented. SPEAKERS: • Removing Chocolate Milk from Schools: Impacts on Nutrient Intake Dr. Carol Henry, PhD Univ. of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK • Salient Beliefs Underlying the Consumption of Milk and Cheese Among Healthy Adults Dr. Veronique Provencher, PhD, RD Universite Laval, Quebec, QC • “Not On the Radar Screen”: Understanding Canadians’ Under-consumption of Milk Products Dr. Susan Barr, PhD, RD, FDC Univ. of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC

SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 7:00am – 8:15am BREAKFAST PLENARY: SPOTLIGHT ON VITAMIN D: IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE AND POLICY CHAIR:
Breakfast starts at 7:00 am ~
Dr. Angelo Tremblay, PhD Laval University Quebec, QC
Presentation begins promptly at 7:30 am
Vitamin D, the “sunshine” vitamin, is known to be essential for bone health throughout the life span. In the last decade vitamin D has also been associated with the prevention or treatment of conditions including obesity, type 1 and 2 diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, depression or autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis. However, only bone health was employed as an indicator of vitamin D adequacy in the recently revised Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI) by the Institute of Medicine and Health Canada since the evidence to link vitamin D with other than bone health was not deemed adequate in terms of cause and effect, or sufficiently informative regarding dose-response relationships to be used to derive DRI recommendations. A review of recent research will shed light on what is known about the current status of vitamin D in Canadians from infancy to the elderly including pregnant women. From this information we can address the questions of who is at risk of vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency, what are the causative factors, and how do we improve the vitamin D health of Canadians through foods and supplements. SPEAKER: • Dr. Stephanie Atkinson, PhD, FCAHS Dept. Pediatrics, Faculty Health Sciences McMaster University, Hamilton, ON
SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 8:15am – 9:00am CENTRUM FOUNDATION YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AWARD USING THE SOCIAL-ECOLOGICAL MODEL TO GUIDE THE DEVELOPMENT, IMPLEMENTATION, AND EVALUATION OF ABORIGINAL NUTRITION RESEARCH CHAIR:
Dr. Linda McCargar, PhD, RD University of Alberta Edmonton, AB Dr. Noreen Willows is Associate Professor of Community Nutrition at the University of Alberta and a Health Scholar with Alberta Innovates – Health Solutions. Her research focus is Aboriginal nutrition and health, which is a critical area considering the high prevalence of chronic disease in this population group. She takes a community-based, participatory approach to research, in which community members and researchers work together to find solutions to health problems. Dr. Willows’ career path has taken her from clinical and epidemiological research about infant childhood anemia and obesity, through community-based health assessment, and now to population intervention research to prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus at the community level. Her current research program is to address food security in the Aboriginal context. This body of research in Aboriginal communities has 1) advanced knowledge of the epidemiology and determinants of obesity in First Nations communities, 2) engaged community leaders as participants in considering the implications of the research for the health of their communities, and 3) informed the research community about developing a participatory process for designing culturally-sensitive health promotion programs.

The goal of food literacy is to promote enduring knowledge, enabling consumers to make informed food choices. This symposium will focus on the nutrition literacy and numeracy challenges that are encountered when making public health interventions. The symposium will include two
13
presentations. These presentations will provide information on the food literacy challenges encountered by consumers and highlight the importance of considering food literacy in Canadian public health interventions. SPEAKERS: • Title TBC Dr. Doris Gillis, PhD, RD St. Francis Xavier University, Antigonish, NS • The Development of Supportive Environments for Healthy Eating Habits When Eating Out Ms. Elizabeth Mansfield, MSc, RD Health Canada, Ottawa, ON • Oral Abstract Presentations
SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 10:30am – 12:00pm CONCURRENT SESSION: FAT-SOLUBLE VITAMINS AND COGNITION CHAIR:
Dr. Guylaine Ferland, PhD University of Montreal Montreal, QC Although vitamins K, D and the xanthophyll carotenoids were not historically discovered for their actions in brain function, they are now known to contribute to cognitive health, especially during aging. Through its involvement in sphingolipid metabolism and activation of specific proteins present in brain, vitamin K has been shown to modulate cognition in old age. The carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin function as both antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents and recent reports suggest that they could offer protection against cognitive impairments. Finally, there is data to suggest that vitamin D could contribute to cognitive health in old age through various neuroprotective mechanisms. This symposium will highlight recent studies investigating the effects of these fat-soluble vitamins on cognition and discuss their underlying actions. SPEAKERS: • Vitamin D and Cognition: Some Sun for the Twilight of the Mind Dr. Cedric Annweiler, MD Geriatric Medicine, Dept. Neuroscience, Angers Univ. Hospital, Angers, France • Lutein & Zeaxanthin: Journey From the Eye to the Brain Dr. Elizabeth Johnson, PhD Jean Mayer USDFA Human Nutrition Research Centre on Aging, Tufts Univ., Boston, MA • Vitamin K, An Emerging Nutrient in Brain Function Dr. Guylaine Ferland, PhD University of Montreal, Montreal, QC
SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 10:30am – 12:00pm CONCURRENT SESSION: METABOLICALLY HEALTHY OBESITY: FACT OR FICTION? CHAIR:
Dr. David Mutch, PhD University of Guelph Guelph, ON Obesity is primary risk factor for a myriad of chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and sleep apnea. However, it is now recognized that a significant proportion (20-30%) of the obese population may have a reduced risk for these downstream complications. Due to the favourable metabolic status of these individuals, this subset of the obese population is classified as being “metabolically healthy”. It is crucial to improve our understanding of metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) as this may have widespread implications on both basic and clinical research, as well as health
14
management strategies. Only recently has the scientific community begun to examine the metabolic and genetic basis underlying MHO, and it remains unclear whether MHO individuals respond to lifestyle (diet and physical activity) and pharmaceutical interventions similar to their “at risk” obese counterparts. Therefore the goal of this symposium is to discuss the clinical relevance of MHO and highlight current research in the field. SPEAKERS: • Metabolically Healthy but Obese Individuals: How Do We Identify and Treat Them? Dr. Antony Karelis, PhD University of Quebec, Montreal, QC • Metabolically Healthy Obesity is as Real as the Easter Bunny Dr. Jennifer Kuk, PhD York University, Toronto, ON • Oral Abstract Presentations

SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 2:00pm – 3:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: NUTRITIONAL BIOMARKERS FOR HEALTH & CHRONIC DISEASE CHAIR:
Dr. Philip M. Sherman, MD, FRCPC Scientific Director, CIHR, Inst. Nutrition, Metabolism & Diabetes Toronto, ON The Biomarkers of Nutrition for Development (BOND) program was initiated in 2009 by staff of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH)/U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, with support from a number of partners, and has three goals: 1) address the need for discovery, development, and implementation of reliable and valid biomarkers to assess nutrient exposure, status, function, and effect, 2) develop a process to harmonize the decision-making process about what biomarkers are best for use across the range of activities represented by the global food and nutrition enterprise, and 3) use information gathered to provide evidence-based advice. In Phase I of the BOND project, 6 nutrients (Iodine, Vitamin A, Iron, Folate, Vitamin B12 and Zinc), were selected based on the range of issues each present to the community. For each nutrient an Expert Panel has been constituted and charged with the development of critical reviews to serve as the basis of materials to be used on the BOND interactive website including the “Query-Based System (QBS)” that is being designed to provide state of the art advice to users. An overview of the BOND process will be presented along with a brief discussion of lessons learned and new directions to support the biomarker agenda. The symposium will also provide an opportunity for participants to learn about the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) and the selection of nutritional biomarkers for the CLSA. The CLSA is a research platform or infrastructure that will enable state-of-the-art, interdisciplinary population-based research and evidenced-based decision-making to lead to better health and quality of life for Canadians. SPEAKERS: • Biomarkers of Nutrition for Development: Overview and Future Directions Dr. Daniel Raiten, PhD Eunice Kennedy Shriver Nat’l Inst. Of Child Health and Human Development, Bethesda, MD • Overview of Canadian Longitudinal Study of Aging Dr. Parminder Raina, PhD, CRC McMaster University, Hamilton, ON • Discussant: Dr. Stephanie Atkinson, PhD McMaster University, Hamilton, ON

SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 2:00pm – 3:30pm CONCURRENT SESSION: CURRENT TOPICS IN NUTRITIONAL ASSESSMENT CHAIRS:
Dr. Carla Prado, MD The Florida State University Tallahassee, FL
Dr. Linda McCargar, PhD, RD University of Alberta Edmonton, AB
Similar to any medical field, the science of nutritional assessment has evolved with the advent of new technology. We are now in an era where more sophisticated tools are needed for reliable measurement of physiological reserves and where any superficial and subjective assessments may neglect risk and status. As an example, evaluating weight change (primarily weight loss) throughout the course of a clinical condition has been a paramount endpoint for the assessment of nutritional status and is in fact useful when drastic changes are observed. Nonetheless, body weight (and hence body mass index, BMI) may not accurately depict specific shifts between lean versus fat tissue compartments and patients may therefore present with weight stability while gaining adipose tissue and losing muscle mass. This disparate behavior of muscle and adipose tissue reflect the variability of body composition in our contemporary population. Body composition (i.e. the amounts of fat and fat-free tissues in the body) is fundamental for the assessment of nutritional status. Indices of body composition are used in clinical settings to identify patients with chronic under or overnutrition, and to monitor long term changes in body composition during nutritional support. It is clear from emerging studies that body composition will be vital for treatment decisions, survival outcomes and quality of life of different groups. This symposium will address recent advances in nutritional assessment research and practice, highlighting and comparing milestones in the assessment of body composition and the recent findings related its prognostic effect in different (adult) clinical populations. Furthermore, we will discuss criteria used to identify states of nutrition imbalance (i.e. cutpoints to define under- and overnutrition) in research and clinical settings.

SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 4:00pm – 5:00pm CONCURRENT SESSION: YOGURT AND DAIRY PRODUCT CONSUMPTION: IMPACT ON THE REGULATION OF OBESITY AND CARDIOMETABOLIC RISK CHAIR:
Dr. Angelo Tremblay, PhD University of Laval Quebec, QC The proof of concept relating dairy consumption and the risk of obesity is now based on epidemiological data, standardized laboratory experiments and clinical trials. There are also mechanistic studies contributing to explain why some nutrients of 19
dairy food favor a negative energy balance and the maintenance of a healthy body weight. Recent studies further suggest that fermented dairy products such as yogurt may help prevent weight gain and cardio-metabolic diseases. This symposium considers the biological and organoleptic properties of dairy-related nutrients as well as the profile of individuals being characterized by a regular dairy consumption, and taking dietary patterns into account. This symposium is also relevant for the agrifood industry which is legitimate to envision the design of healthy dairy functional foods to contribute to obesity management. SPEAKERS: • Yogurt and Weight Management Dr. Paul Jacques, DSc. Tufts University, Medford, MA • Yogurt and Appetite Control Dr. Angelo Tremblay, PhD Laval University, Quebec, QC

SATURDAY, JUNE 1 – 4:00pm – 5:00pm CONCURRENT SESSION: INTEGRATION OF DIETARY GUIDANCE IN THE CANADIAN NUTRIENT FILE CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM CHAIRS:
Dr. Sylvie St-Pierre, PhD Health Canada Ottawa, ON The Canadian Nutrient File (CNF) is the Canadian standard reference food composition database. It is mainly used to analyse the composition of foods eaten by Canadians as reported in food consumption surveys done at the national or provincial levels. The classification within this database has recently been updated according to the 2007 Food Guide, “Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide” (CNF/CFG classification) – See presentation: “The Classification of Foods in the Canadian Nutrient File (CNF) According to ‘Eating Well with Canada's Food Guide’ (EWGFG)”. The main objective of this presentation is to show how the updated classification within the CNF can be used to analyse survey data. The assessment of the diets of Canadians was done using the Canadian Community Health Survey, cycle 2.2 (CCHS 2.2). The number of Food Guide Servings coming from each food group is presented for the different age/sex groups and is assessed against the recommended number of servings found on EWCFG. In preparation for CCHS 2015, this presentation should help CNF users to better understand the application of this revised surveillance tool. SPEAKERS: • Assessment of Canadians’ Diets According to Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide Dr. Sylvie St-Pierre, PhD Health Canada, Ottawa, ON • The Classification of Foods in the Canadian Nutrient File (CNF) According to “Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide” (EWGFG) Ms. Lisa-Anne Elvidge, MSc, RD Health Canada, Ottawa, ON 20
