Description: One size does not fit all when it comes to health. Precision nutrition approaches, which take into account individual differences in patients' genes, environments, and lifestyle, offer an intriguing opportunity to tailor nutrition to the individual patient's needs, but are they ready for prime-time? Learn about NIH's Nutrition for Precision Health study, and its ambitious goals to develop the science needed to provide customized nutrition guidance for improved health.

| Learning Objectives: |
| 1. Apply the latest recommendations for evaluation and treatment; tailor intervention strategies based on patient characteristics such as age or metabolic or behavioral phenotype; understand the differences between weight loss and weight loss maintenance. |
| 2. Understand the evidence-based science regarding neuroendocrine, environmental, endocrine, microbiota and/or cognitive behavioral mechanisms regulating energy balance and body weight. Apply that knowledge to develop and implement treatment options for adults and pediatric patients with overweight, obesity or obesity-related co-morbidities. |
| 3. Implement appropriate strategies for diagnosing adolescent and pediatric obesity, evaluate current treatment options and emerging therapeutics and provide care and treatment to adolescent and pediatric patients accordingly. Teach evidence-based strategies for obesity prevention in the pediatric and adolescent population. |
| 4. Apply lessons learned about the impact of nutrition and obesity initiatives and policies to reduce health disparities and stigmatization of individuals with obesity. |
| 5. Apply new knowledge related to obesity treatment options from the perspectives of Metabolism and Integrative Physiology, Neuroscience, Intervention and Clinical Studies, Population Health, Clinical/Professional Practice, and Policy/Public Health. |
