Fortiphy final conference

Claire Sulmont-Rossé, CSGA-INRAE

Address the nutritional and physical activity needs of older adults at risk of undernutrition and discover research-based solutions

<h3>Why attend?</h3><p>As part of the European initiative JPI-HDHL, the FORTIPHY project addresses the nutritional and physical activity needs of older adults at risk of undernutrition. Join us to discover practical, research-based solutions developed with and for older adults — from DIY protein-enriched recipes to physical activity programs designed for home use.</p>

<h3>Conference highlights</h3><ul><li>Insights into ageing, appetite loss, dietary enrichment and food-based fortification</li><li>Co-creation of fortified recipes accepted by older adults</li><li>Synergistic effects of nutrition and physical activity</li><li>Future directions to support healthy ageing at home</li></ul>

<h3>For whom?</h3><p>Students, scientists, healthcare professionals, stakeholders in nutrition, food industry, elderly care.</p><p>Language: English</p>

Calendrier

Connection and Welcome

This opening session sets the stage by exploring how ageing impacts appetite and contributes to undernutrition. It highlights the role of dietary enrichment and appraises the current evidence on food-based fortification from a systematic literature review.

Old age and small appetite: sustaining food intake to prevent undernutrition

This session presents how older adults participated in designing protein- and caloric- fortified recipes tailored for home preparation through focus groups and home-usage tests. It discusses processing, sensory and regulatory challenges 

Co-creation of fortified recipes

Break

This session will provide the results of an acute study in older adults (aged 70+ years). The study aimed to assess the impact of breakfasts high in plant or dairy protein on food intake, appetite, appetite-related hormones, gastric emptying and plasma amino acids, compared to a control breakfast.

Impact of protein-enriched food on satiation and satiety

This session displays the results of a randomized control trial assessing whether combining meal fortification with physical activity leads to greater improvements in nutritional status, body weight, and muscle mass among older adults.

Impact of fortification combined with physical activity on nutritional status 

The final session summarizes key findings from the FORTIPHY project and outlines future directions for research, innovation and implementation to prevent undernutrition in ageing populations.
