While the low-carb message is still heard, it is being restructured in applicable and useful directions. This sets the stage for a new understanding of carbs. For example, certain types extend satiety, lower insulin response and reduce cholesterol.

This scientific review is one of dozens at the IFT Annual Meeting and Food Expo that will focus on diet and health.

On Sunday, July 17, technology experts will offer alternatives for replacing trans fats in foods, while other experts examine the hurdles of bringing successful low-carb products to market. Topics the next day include fish toxicology and safety, new dietary guidelines and advice for different segments of the population including children. On Tuesday, foodservice's focus on reducing obesity, the industry's advances toward reducing sodium in food, and other health and nutrition topics will be examined.

Now in its 65th year, IFT Annual Meeting + FOOD EXPOŽ is the world's single largest annual scientific meeting and technical exposition of its kind, regularly registering 20,000 attendees, nearly 1,000 exhibiting companies, and more than 1,000 technical presentations. Rated among the largest shows in America*, the meeting and expo delivers comprehensive, cutting-edge research and opinion from food science-, technology-, marketing- and business-leaders.

In tandem with the IFT Food Safety & Quality Conference, this five-day period is hailed as Food Science and Technology Week.
