 Thursday 25th February 2010

6:15pm - Drinks and canapés in Garvan's Galleria.

7pm - Forum commences in NAB Auditorium.

The forum will discuss what superfoods are and how they influence our health and well-being. We will explore the full spectrum of food production – from organics, cooking, food packaging and processing through to dietary approaches and bust some of the great myths about food types.

The forum will address two key questions: Can you really achieve optimum health, live longer and prevent disease through changing the way that you eat? Are the claimed benefits of superfoods simply too good to be true?


MC - Channel Nine's 'What's Good For You' presenter, Dr Andrew Rochford
