Dear Nutri 2025 participants,

It is a pleasure to welcome the Nutri 2025 participants. I am honored and grateful to have the opportunity to speak with you during this congress in two presentations on the connections between the dietary shifts away from traditional foods over the past half century and the growing problem of metabolic disorders, such as diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease, which have become particularly worrisome in Singapore and in many other countries worldwide. Dietary recommendations to eat a low-fat higher-carbohydrate diet and to replace saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat have encouraged these dietary shifts and have coincided with these epidemics of metabolic disorders. One presentation will explore whether such dietary guidelines are justified by the evidence. The other presentation will discuss how a dietary intervention with ketogenic oils and a whole food diet low in carbohydrates and higher in healthy fats could be beneficial to people with prediabetes, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, other neurological and psychiatric disorders, as well as age-related cognitive decline. Best wishes for a productive congress.

It is a great honor and pleasure to write a few welcome notes on the 7th Edition of International Nutrition Research Conference. Nutrition is vital for our daily lives and activities and the need for a balanced diet is emphasized from our primary school education. The high rates of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity often stems from marked deviations from such balanced diets. The area of nutrition has exploded recently with development of new technologies, including multi-omics platforms, and personal management plans with explosion of literature on areas such as health and disease in humans (e.g., obesity, weight management, metabolic syndrome and other metabolic disorders, biomarkers, aging) and animals together with associated changes at the cellular or whole-body level (e.g., metabolism, immunology, biochemistry), dietetics and education, nutraceuticals and functional foods, nutrigenomics and nutrigenomics, nutritional immunology, nutrition in health and aging and many others. This conference will provide an unparalleled platform to learn about new developments from cutting-edge research, increase network and foster new collaborations.

Dear Attendants of the Nutri 2025

it is an honor and pleasure to write a few welcome notes. I am honored and grateful to have the opportunity to share with you the last data in the field of nutrigenetics and precision nutrition.  We live in a world where obesity has reached alarming levels, is continuously increasing and for the moment no country is able to stop this growing trend. As the prevalence of obesity continues to rise, it poses a significant threat to public health worldwide. The impact of obesity is staggering, with studies indicating that it is linked to a wide spectrum of co-morbidities, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, liver dysfunction, respiratory and musculoskeletal disorders, sub-fertility, and certain types of cancer. The World Health Organization has declared obesity a global epidemic, emphasizing that it remains an under-recognized problem on the public health agenda. This is particularly concerning, as obesity is a chronic, relapsing, and progressive disease that requires comprehensive and effective intervention strategies. Nutrition stands as a pivotal determinant impacting human health, with proficient dietary interventions emerging as a predominant strategy in the prevention and treatment of non-communicable chronic diseases, especially for obesity, Type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In recent years, nutritional research has been rapidly increasing; however, the attribute risk of inadequate dietary intake contributing to the onset of these diseases remains substantial. This circumstance compels nutrition research to actively explore potential solutions to bridge this gap. “Precision nutrition” has been considered to be a possible solution to this gap for nearly a decade, predominantly based on evidence showcasing inter-individual variability in response to dietary interventions. The  area of precision nutrition encompasses a comprehensive continuum spanning from the measurement of dietary intake to the development of intervention strategies based on individual variability. We have a great chance to exchange ideas, investigate fresh research, and work together on creative methods that benefit the individual at this conference. Join me in Singapore from 27-29 March 2025.

Dear Congress Attendees,

Dear congress visitors, it is an honor and pleasure to write a few welcome notes. In the field of surgery, sarcopenia, visceral obesity, and malnutrition are closely related with outcomes after surgery. So, precise evaluation and adequate intervention are crucial to improve outcomes after surgery. We have published many articles regarding the impact of sarcopenia, body compositions including visceral obesity, and nutritional therapy in patients undergoing surgery. Moreover, we have implemented Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in the field of surgery. In my presentation, I would like to introduce our studies investigating the impact of sarcopenia on outcomes after surgery and our perioperative nutritional and exercise intervention based on preoperative evaluation in Kyoto University and St Luke’s International Hospital. Based on the findings of these studies, I can conclude that not chronological age but physical age is important in surgery. Please enjoy Nutri 2025 in Singapore.

Dear Conference Visitors,

It is an honor and pleasure to write a few welcome notes. Dietetics is a rapidly evolving area of science, where both new scientific studies on nutrition in prevention and studies exploring further possibilities of applying diets in the treatments of many diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and others, are regularly emerging. Dietetics is also important knowledge about, nutritional value and energy, as well as their possible interactions with medicines and dietary supplements. Dietetics is therefore an interdisciplinary science that provides a broad knowledge about food, human nutrition, and the effects that we can expect with the application of the diet.

Dear Attendants of the 7th Edition of International Nutrition Research Conference

It’s my immense pleasure to be part of this international conference and scheduled to deliver a keynote presentation on one of the world's trendy topics, "Globalisation of ayurveda through evidence-based nutraceutical route"

We are increasingly realizing that the one disease–one target–one drug concept does not always lead to successful disease control. This concept has led to new developments in drug discovery including systems-based approaches using the principles of multitarget pharmacology. It is generally accepted worldwide that modern pharmaceuticals will remain out of reach of many people and “health for all” may only be materialized by the use of adequately assessed nutraceutical/phytomedicinal products including Ayurvedic medicines. The globalisation of Ayurvedic medicines and their spread to the postmodern West is a paramount challenge and I’ll discuss all these challenges and opportunities, particularly in nutrition and nutraceutical domain. Please join me to get insight

Dear Conference Attendees,

Welcome to this transformative event! As an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Central Florida, I am thrilled to join you for discussion in exploring the dynamic intersection between autoimmune diseases and lifestyle medicine, particularly through the lens of nutrition. This topic will illuminate how nutritional strategies can profoundly impact autoimmune conditions and enhance overall well-being.

My work in publishing research on nutrition and my role as culinary medicine faculty at UCF have deepened my appreciation for the critical role that diet plays in managing health conditions. This conference is a fantastic opportunity for us to share knowledge, explore new research, and collaborate on innovative approaches that help the individual. I look forward to the valuable insights and discussions that will shape our future endeavors in this vital field.
