Welcome to the Final Conference of the APPETITE project, a JPI HDHL initiative dedicated to understanding and addressing poor appetite and undernutrition in older adults.
This event brings together researchers, clinicians, industry partners, and policymakers to share the projectโs achievements- from developing plant-protein & fibre food products to designing a multi-centre clinical trial combining nutrition and physical activity support for older adults.
In this playlist, youโll see:
Highlights from the APPETITE consortiumโs research journey.
Insights into the development and testing of plant-protein & fibre foods.
Updates from the APPETITE randomised controlled trial and project partners.
Reflections on the future of nutrition, ageing, and healthy living in Europe.
About APPETITE:
This multinational consortium- including University College Dublin (Ireland), Friedrich-Alexander Universitรคt Erlangen-Nรผrnberg (Germany), INRAE (France), Fraunhofer IVV (Germany), Newcastle University (UK), the University of Padua (Italy), Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (Netherlands), and industry partner Food Companions BV/Bridge2Food โ combines expertise in nutrition, ageing, biomedicine, and food-technology to develop and test plant-protein & fibre dietary solutions for older adults at risk of undernutrition.
APPETITE aims to explore innovative, acceptable, and sustainable solutions to help older adults maintain appetite, nutritional intake, and overall wellbeing.
Thank you to all participants, collaborators, and supporters who made this international effort possible.
