Tracking Nutrition Trends (TNT) is the longest running food and nutrition tracking survey around with the first one conducted in 1989.
CCFN is working with Dr. Anna Farmer from the University of Alberta conducting research on consumers and sodium. These findings will be presented at our web-cast.
CCFN is the only multi-sectoral evidence-based organization in Canada.
CCFN’s CEO was a member of the Trans Fat Task Force and is a member of Health Canada’s Working Group on Sodium. She was invited to present to the House of Commons Committee on Health on Childhood Obesity.
CCFN came into existence from a merger of the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) which was in existence for over 25 years and the Canadian Food Information Council (CFIC) which was in existence for over 5 years.
