This document summarizes a presentation on how sweeteners fit into dietary quality. It defines diet quality as the overall nutrient profile and energy density of a diet. Several factors can affect diet quality, including socioeconomic status, education level, culinary skills, and beverage choice. While added sugars make up a small portion of increased calorie intake since 1970, there is no consensus on optimal sugar intake. The presentation emphasizes considering overall eating patterns rather than single nutrients, and notes diet quality is individualized.
Access to Healthy Food a Critical Strategy for Successful Population Health ...Innovations2Solutions
The diet of many Americans remains unhealthy, contributing to high rates of childhood and adult obesity that are associated with health outcomes such as heart disease and stroke. To promote wellness, the healthcare industry must go beyond treating individuals with chronic conditions to also address
the risks of different population segments before they reach advanced stages of illness.

The present study examines the difference in nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and dietary intake among college students based on the presence of vegetarianism. A Web-based survey using 702 college students at a Midwest university collected data about participants’ level of nutrition knowledge, attitudes toward nutrition and vegetarianism, and dietary patterns. Results showed vegetarians had a more positive attitude towards a vegetarian diet as opposed to non-vegetarians. Vegetarians also demonstrated greater nutrition knowledge specifically related to vegetarian nutrition as opposed to general nutrition, although their dietary intake did not prove to be of higher quality than nonvegetarians. Results from this study are applicable in the vegetarian community and those who work with vegetarians. Most notably, this study may be of great use to food service establishments, particularly college dining settings.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

3. • Define the concept of diet quality
• Identify factors affecting diet quality
• Identify top sources of sugars and sweeteners in the diet
• Present arguments for why added sugars are, and are not,
associated with diet quality
5. Dietary quality refers to the overall quality of the diet based on its
nutrient profile
• Nutrient density refers to the overall quality of the diet based on its nutrient profile
• Energy density refers to total caloric load
6. • Benchmarks for diet quality
– DGA: Evidence-based dietary guidelines to encourage a lifestyle approach to weight
control that integrates all key nutrients (foods to limit, foods to encourage).
• 2010: Unique task to address an overweight or obese population, who are
undernourished in several key nutrients
• Assessment tools
– Not one measure, but a range of tools
– DRI: US Dietary Reference Intakes help determine minimum and maximum
requirements for energy and essential nutrients
RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowances) and the AI (Adequate Intake)
EAR (Estimated Average Requirements)
UL (Tolerable Upper Intake Levels)
7. Indexes and scoring systems used to evaluate diet quality
• Healthy Eating Index — assess diet quality with regard to DGA
– Youth Healthy Eating Index
– Alternative Healthy Eating Index — distinguishes quality within food groups,
better indicator for cardiovascular risk
• Recommended Food Score
• Nutrient Rich Food Index
Guenther, PM, Cassavale, KO, Reedy, J et al. Update of the Healthy Eating Index: HEI 2010. J Acad Nutr Diet. 2013 Apr;113(4):569-80.
9. • Socioeconomic status
– Body of data showing diet quality runs along the socioeconomic gradient
– The mean percentage of total calories from added sugars decreases with increasing age
and increasing income
– Recent Harvard study shows while diet quality is improving overall, the gap between low
and high socioeconomic status widened
• Sociocultural aspects of diet quality
– Family dinner, meal style
– Ethnic foods, holiday traditions
– Racial differences — non-Hispanic black men and women consumed a larger percentage
of their total calories from added sugars than non-Hispanic white and Mexican-American
men and women
– Forbidden foods

10. • Education level
– Less education often correlated to poor diet quality
• Culinary skills
– Lack of skills, lack of interest
– Skills handed down through generations
– Learned skills

11. • Beverage choice and diet quality
– Milk consumption in children is directly correlated to better overall diet
quality; dairy is often used as a benchmark for diet quality in children
since it delivers a host of nutrients, and soft drinks are associated with
lower milk consumption
– Higher juice and sugar-sweetened beverage consumption associated
with lower milk consumption

12. ROLE OF ADDED SUGAR IN
DIETARY QUALITY
• Sources of sugar
• Recommendations for sugar intake

Methods. Cancer Control and Population Sciences. http://riskfactor.cancer.gov/diet/foodsources/added_sugars/table5a.html
14. According to USDA Food Availability
Data, calorie intake in 1970 was
~2100. In 2010 it was ~2570.
• Most of calorie increase attributed to
fats and grain products
• AHA says primary reason to reduce
added sugars is generally to lower
total calorie intake or glycemic load
and promote adequate nutrition, but
added sugars only contributing
~4% of the +470 calorie increase
since 1970
Added
sugars
4%
Added fats
53%
Flour/
cereal
products
40%
Other
3%
USDA, Economic Research Service data: U.S. per capita calories loss-adjusted food availability: “Total Calories” 1970-2010
15. Is sugar the big issue?
• Adults underconsume fruits and vegetables (<2 cups/day)
• SOFAS:
– Fat: 94-98% of males exceed recs for added solid fats, 92-97% of females do
– Sugar: 68-85% adult females exceed discretionary calorie for sugar, 55-80%
of males do
• Bray and Popkin blame dietary fat for obesity in 1998, then in 2004 blame sugar
• Children and adults consume more sugar at home than away from home
• Consideration of “nutrients of concern” (vitamin D, fiber, calcium, potassium,
B vitamins)

16. • No definitive guideline for sugar intake
• Differentiating between sugar and added sugar
• General dietary recommendations:
– The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010
Limit total intake of discretionary calories, including both solid fats and
sugars (SOFAS), to 5-15% per day
– American Heart Association general guidelines
Minimize beverages and foods with
added sugars
17. Competing Recommendations: How much sugar is optimal in
the diet?
• AHA: no more than 6 tsp for women, 9 tsp for men
• IOM: RDA – minimum recommendation for carbohydrate 130g/day
• DGA: General recommendations to ‘reduce’
• WHO: <10% of daily calories should come from added sugars; in process
of drafting new guideline
18. Fat vs. Sugar?
• Fat recommendations have moved from the ‘fat-phobic’ 1990s to current
recs to increase “heart-healthy” fats
• Conflicting studies — some show low carb, high protein increase mortality,
others show that moderate amounts of carb (50-55%) along with diet low in
saturated fat, are associated with lower CVD risk
Body of research showing a diet high in whole grains low in fat and
saturated fat reduces cardiovascular disease (sources cited).

Yang, EF, Chung, HK, Kim, WY, et al. Carbohydrate intake is associated with diet quality and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in US adults. NHANES III. J Am Coll
Nutr. 2002;22:71-9
20. • There are benchmarks for diet quality and several tools to evaluate
diet quality
• We often over focus on one nutrient, rather than observing overall
eating patterns and intake; sugar recommendations vary, as do
individual needs for carbohydrates; the data shows that, singularly,
sugar does not appear to impact diet quality on its own
21. • Nutrients are not eaten in isolation, but are combined
• Consider all factors that impact an individual’s food and beverage choices
• Educate clients in a meaningful way, considering the cultural and
socioeconomic factors that may influence the choices they can make
• There should be agreement that diets must be individualized,
particularly for those with medical issues, and that the registered
dietitian is the most equipped to evaluate individual diets, and
prescribe the best diet plan for desired results

Editor's Notes
My twitter handle is @rustnutrition. You can tweet through session using #FNCE2014
Harvard study – The results showed that people with higher socioeconomic status had healthier diets than people with lower socioeconomic status and that gap increased from 1999 to 2010.
Trans fats decreased; more whole fruit, more whole grains, more nuts, legumes, PUFA, less sugar-sweetened beverages.
Do sweeteners displace other important food groups or is the avoidance of those foods independent of sugar intake?
Data are drawn from analyses of usual dietary intake conducted by the National Cancer Institute. Foods and beverages consumed were divided into 97 categories and ranked according to added sugars contribution to the diet. “All other food categories” represents food categories that each contributes less than 2% of the total added sugar intake.
Keep in mind that some sources of SOFAS contribute important nutrients to overall diet.
