The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) was invited to attend a recent international meeting organised by the Fondazione Giovanni Lorenzini Medical Science Foundation (Milan, Italy – Houston, TX, USA) on improving nutritional guidelines in order to create sustainable health policies. This discussion paper further explores emerging themes from the presentations and discussions during the meeting, through follow-up interviews supplemented by selected literature.

Guidelines understandably dominated discussion at the meeting. However, the limitations of the underlying primary research also provided much debate. The main themes to emerge from the day were around ways in which guidelines can reflect the state of the evidence, how guideline producers can identify and manage conflicts of interest, the challenges facing primary research in nutrition and innovations in nutrition science.
