The COVID-19 pandemic has altered almost every aspect of our daily lives. As we continue navigating this challenge, it’s important to evaluate and offer various means for reducing infections, deaths and suffering from this outbreak.
In this webinar, Dariush Mozaffarian, Dean of the Friedman School of Nutrition, will discuss how food and nutrition are critical to the current and post-COVID-19 response. He will share insights on the importance of leveraging food as medicine, incentivizing and shifting to real food, building a strong public health and food infrastructure, and rapidly expanding critical nutrition research to help overcome this crisis.
We have heard about “flattening the curve” through social distancing, hand washing, and quarantining, but what role can food and nutrition play in helping “bend the curve”?
“A massive campaign on diet would save lives and change the course of our nation’s health forever.”
