As the Chair of Nutracon this year, I wanted to let everyone know that the program is essentially finalized with session descriptions complete. The 6 tracks this year have something for just about everyone and were designed to provide exactly that. From New Developments in Botanicals and Extracts to the Mainstreming of Natural Sweeteners, and healthy oils to antioxidant science, (not to mention Healthy Aging and Weight Management) we’ve got important topics, great speakers and more than a little bit of controversy.

For those of you that took in Slim-Slam last year (side by side presentation on the science of selected weight management ingredients) we’ve upped the ante this year and are running Slim-Slam II as well as Brainstorm, an evaluation of brain health/cognition ingredients. So we’ve got trends, cutting edge science, speakers like Dr. Gregory Berns, Dr. Jeffrey Blumberg, Jane Brody and Dr. Brian Wansink and discussions on emerging products such as resveratrol and ‘experienced’ ones such as the ‘Future of DHEA’. I know many of you already have registration codes, but for those that don’t, drop me a line. I look forward to seeing you there for what promises to be one of the best Nutracon programs ever.
