@KCKlatt If uncertain evidence, a “conditional rec” should be made. Or if there is little to no published evidence for the question at hand, rather than “recs” the panel could make “good practice statement”. Leaves rm for sci to evolve. See: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

RE the DGAs - The fun thing about nutrition is that you can performatively claim to want causal data and talk about the limits of surrogate endpoints and epidemiology --but actually adhering to that consistently would leave you with close to no recs so you can apply it stringently when you want (as this report does for satfats) and then not apply it when you dont (high protein recs, oxidized lipids concerns, convos on refined grains and added sugars).

#RealWorldData advocates facing challenges addressing sources of bias suggest causal modelling as a solution. Doesn’t work. Comparison of 19 modelling studies with #RCTs showed 42% differed in direction and 47% of confidence intervals didn’t include RCT estimate. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31704350/

Watch the Pennington Biomedical space for new insights on childhood obesity coming from our Implementation Science and Childhood Obesity Symposium. Renowned scientists from the US and Canada are collaborating on a consensus paper to address the current landscape, scalable solutions, and strategies for implementing evidence-based interventions to combat childhood obesity. Stay tuned for groundbreaking insights into this pressing issue. #ChildhoodObesity #ImplementationScience #PenningtonBiomedical

Like most allied health professions, RDs report not having had enough training in evidence-based practice (and most want more training). Lots of room for uplifting EBP, starting with crdns and krdns (which drive national examinations)! See Table 1: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38159813/

Cosign for dietetics. It's gotten out of control in the field - more enthusiasm for flipping evidence-based practice on its head to feel like a naturopathic prescriber with supplements than there is for rigor & excellence in dietetics.

@Urvashi_Bhagat @AaronKelly_PhD @NIH It is no doubt more complicated to do nutrition and health behavior research, starts with a good answerable Q, and needs good methodologists/trialists/infrastructure and other content/ interdisciplinary experts. +$$

@AaronKelly_PhD @NIH I agree. But there is a problem with NIH 1. It does not sufficiently research nutritional solutions. 2. It does know how to research nutrition. The study parameters that are applied in pharma research can't be applied in nutrition, because nutrients can step in for each other.

We need evidence-based ‘research’, where high quality, original, up to date systematic reviews and guidelines identify the gaps, and drive much needed clinical nutrition trials. And the trials need to measure outcomes that matter to patients and the public
Kevin C. Klatt, PhD, RD@KCKlatt

It is bizarre living in the Bay Area, being around folks so interested in nutrition/biohacking, yet I go to work daily knowing that there is about zero local supported infrastructure left to run a clinical trial on nutrition/supplements/general non-pharmaceutical interventions
