UQ Hosts Conference On Public Health Nutrition, Australia

Welcome to another Dumb and Dumber nutrition conference.

"The University of Queensland is hosting the Australia Public Health Nutrition Academic Collaboration (APHNAC) conference (November 29-30) which will examine the imperatives driving change in public health nutrition, including the obesity epidemic..."

So far, so good, until you see the presentations.

"Time scarcity and dietary practices "
"Family's eating behaviour during adolescence associated with overweight in young adults; a longitudinal study"
"A 'Cinderella public health dimension': the socio-cultural determinants of a taste for healthy food"
"Marketing junk food and beverages to children: the ethical imperative."

Not a single one of them focuses on the real issue - Calories in, Calories out.

Not a single one will result in real actionable conclusions.

All are directed at creating excuses for fat people, including how they abuse their kids.

The only hope this conference offers, is the no hope of success.
