- Healthy diet - World Health Organization (WHO)
WHO fact sheet on healthy diet with key facts and information on essential dietary elements, practical advice, salt, sodium and potassium, sugars, health diet promotion, WHO response
- Healthy diet - World Health Organization (WHO)
Evidence shows the health benefits of a diet high in whole grains, vegetables, fruit, legumes and nuts, and low in salt, free sugars and fats, particularly saturated and trans fats A healthy diet starts early in life with adequate breastfeeding
- WHO launches guide on whole genome sequencing use as a tool for . . .
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is a laboratory technique that has the potential to change how we detect and monitor microbial hazards in the food chain WGS is useful for understanding foodborne diseases through enhancing routine surveillance, outbreak detection, outbreak response and for source identification using a One Health approach It is anticipated that this technology will help reduce
- GUIDELINE FOR THE CONDUCT OF FOOD SAFETY ASSESSMENT OF FOODS DERIVED . . .
Due to the difficulties of applying traditional toxicological testing and risk assessment procedures to whole foods, and based on the experience of assessing the safety of whole foods, a more focused approach is required for the safety assessment of food derived from animals, including recombinant-DNA animals
- A healthy lifestyle - WHO recommendations
Healthy eating is a good opportunity to enrich life by experimenting with different foods from different cultures, origins and with different ways to prepare food The benefits of eating a wide variety of foods are also emotional, as variety and colour are important ingredients of a balance diet
- Food, genetically modified
These questions and answers have been prepared by WHO in response to questions and concerns from WHO Member State Governments with regard to the nature and safety of genetically modified food
- Whole genome sequencing as a tool to strengthen foodborne disease . . .
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is a laboratory technique that has the potential to change how we detect and monitor microbial hazards in the food chain, as well as how we assess, investigate and manage food safety risks It is anticipated that this technology will help reduce the burden of foodborne diseases, given its advantages over previous low-resolution typing and detection methods
- Webinar: Whole genome sequencing as a tool to strengthen foodborne . . .
This webinar will showcase the guidance document, “Whole genome sequencing as a tool to strengthen foodborne disease surveillance and response”, and describe real-life experiences utilizing this technology
