The vonvention sought to bring healthy eating habits to the forefront of global nutrition. “It’s her unfailing enthusiasm and profound optimism for the future in the face of logic that makes her such a special individual!” says Prof. Noakes, when asked about what she brings to the party. “She was the star of the convention. Her courage to stand-up for her insights into sugar addiction, despite criticism, is what gave the convention its initial impetus.”
