Nutrition Information Service

CSI maintains a Nutrition Information Service to inform Canadian health professionals, educators, consumers and the media about current scientific information on sugars, carbohydrates and health.

To accomplish this, the Nutrition Information Service:

  • Collects and disseminates current research findings using peer-reviewed scientific evidence on sugars, carbohydrates, and health; 
  • Develops and regularly updates print and digital communications that reflect the highest level of scientific evidence; 
  • Applies key principles in knowledge translation to improve the effectiveness of CSI's communications; and 
  • Cooperates with allied academic and health professional groups in the areas of research, education, and communications. 

The Nutrition Information Service is managed by qualified nutrition professionals including registered dietitians and nutrition researchers, and is guided by a Scientific Advisory Council
