After a few months of collaborative research, the NUTRIWELLB project is proud to announce its first major result - an E-book on Nutrition and Well-being Fact Checking for Higher Education has already begun to take shape. This e-book is a critical component of the project's second phase, which is led by the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM) and supported by partner organizations including the the University of Alcalá, NOVA University Lisbon, ACEEU, the Center for Knowledge Management, and The Community Foundation of Agrigento and Trapani (FCAT). All these organizations have played an essential role in collecting necessary information from their respective countries, enabling this comprehensive E-book to be created.
This e-book is a valuable resource for higher education students, professors, and stakeholders who want to combat misinformation about nutrition. It provides specialized information and tools to help individuals fact-check online content related to nutrition and well-being to foster a more informed and health-conscious society. The e-book covers a wide range of topics, including nutritional literacy, food labelling, identification of fake news, media labelling, the influence of mass media on dietary behavior, and the portrayal of artificial ideal representations and gender stereotypes in social media. By addressing these essential aspects, individuals can make informed choices about their health and well-being and become active participants in the fight against misinformation.
Additionally, within the pages of this e-book, national legislation and best practices regarding nutrition and fact-checking are examined. With a particular focus on Germany, Italy, the Republic of Macedonia, Portugal, and Spain, this indispensable resource provides accurate and reliable information for those seeking to enhance their understanding of nutrition.
Currently, the E-Book is undergoing rigorous expert review and comprehensive proofreading to ensure the highest standards of accuracy and effectiveness. Stay tuned for the official release to become part of a healthier, more informed society!
