Global Dietetics Forum
The Global Dietetic Forum is an honorary forum set up in response to requests from dietitians and nutritionists from across the globe to play a role in the discussions and dialogue our NV team undertakes.
Chronic lifestyle diseases are taking a toll on individuals across the globe and no one is more aware of the hurdles facing individuals today than dietitians who interact one on one with those facing challenges of obesity, diabetes, and Cardiovascular diseases.
This forum hopes to provide a platform for dietitians globally, to share their views and experiences in the field of diet, life style and health. NVGFD will assist dietitians to review latest research in the field of nutrition, medicine and adapt it to address concurrent issues on diet and health
There are two ways to join this elite community. One is by invitation and the other by application. Lets join hands and make a difference to the health of millions of consumers across the globe.

Chronic lifestyle diseases are one of the leading causes of death globally. Though there are many organizations like the World Health Organization and Dietetic and Nutrition authorities from various developed countries, which have addressed the need of issuing nutrition guidelines, there is still a lack of co-ordination for the same. Are uniform nutrition guidelines the need of the hour to tackle this lifestyle epidemic?
