Time's running out to submit an abstract for SNEB's Annual Conference in San Diego.

As we finish the final push for abstract submissions, we now need volunteers to review those abstracts.
There are several opportunities, including Annual Conference submissions and Food and Nutrition Extension Education (FNEE) Division pre-conference submissions (volunteers needed Jan. 27-31); late-breaking abstract submissions (volunteers needed March 3-15); and those willing and able to help authors for whom English is a second language.
If you're interested, please sign up no later than Friday, Jan. 17.

Controversial guidelines published in the Annals of Internal Medicine in September claimed there is no need to reduce red and processed meat for good health. Even before the journal confirmed the lead author failed to disclose industry funding for the study, SNEB President Jennifer Wilkins called on nutrition educators everywhere to "help students and the public understand that this guideline did not come from an official scientific body."

A new comprehensive scientific review commissioned by the Produce for Better Health Foundation demonstrates that fruits and vegetables have unique, synergistic, health-promoting properties that not only deliver basic nutrient needs, but also improve life expectancy and quality.
The results demonstrate dietary guidance should continue to call for people to enjoy at least five servings of fruits and vegetables each day — fresh, frozen, canned, dried and 100% juice — to improve health and reduce chronic disease risk.
