The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention and the National Network of Public Health Institutes, in collaboration with the Culinary Institute of America, are pleased to announce a new series of Web Forums focusing on working with large food service providers and independent restaurants to improve nutrition and reduce sodium in offerings.
We invite you to join the first Web Forum where we will examine how change happens in a variety of commercial and non-commercial food service settings as it relates to sodium reduction. During the Web Forum, we will address questions such as:
- What are the highest and lowest sources of sodium in the US diet and in foods?
- How do proportions, portion sizes and the build of dishes affect sodium content?
- What knowledge do food service providers need to successfully implement sodium reduction?
- What training and communications strategies work best?
In addition, our presenters will share examples of best practices and successes in sodium reduction in volume food service. Please join us.
