Overview/contents
• Trends in NPD
• What we offer to support NPD
• Our facilities
• Examples of our work
Global
• Population 7.2 Billion and growing – By the time we finish this presentation, 5200
babies will have been born around the world, with a life expectancy averaging 68 years.
• Consumers – increasingly curious about what’s in their food,
where it came from, how it was grown, and how the package that covered it is returned into the environment
Cost/value for money

Sport, Exercise and Wellbeing Evidence based Interventions in the Community
Diane CroneProfessor of Exercise Science University of Gloucestershire
#InnovateNutrition
Sport, Exercise and Wellbeing
• Physical activity and health promotion– Health referral pathways
– Hard to reach groups at risk for Metabolic Syndrome
– Sedentary behaviour
– Coronary vascular disease rehabilitation
• Athlete Wellbeing and Sports Performance – Injury prevention in youth sport
– Alteration of nutritional intake prior to exercise influences energy expenditure
• Clinical Health and Wellbeing – Aetiology of cardiovascular disease
Health Referral Pathways
• Primary focus:– Uptake, adherence and completion of physical
activity programmes and socio-demographic characteristics
– Behaviour change and health outcomes
• Including: – Exercise referral programme (primary care)
– Physical activity pathway (adults and children, community based)
– Arts for health
Contact: Prof Diane Crone [email protected]
Hard to Reach Groups at Risk for Metabolic Syndrome
• Primary focus: – Promote healthy lifestyle and
positive behaviour change for hard to reach groups (sports fans).
• Including: – Health and lifestyle programme
includes health education and physical activity
Contact: Dr Elizabeth Loughren [email protected]
http://www.fans4life.com/
Sedentary People
• Primary focus:– Active Together – GCC Grant scheme to
empower communities to encourage more sport and physical activity across the county
• Including:– Social Return on Investment (SROI)
evaluation to;• understand and value the changes that occur as a
consequence of projects implemented;
• develop a blueprint for the delivery and evaluation of similar future programmes.
Contact: Dr Colin Baker [email protected]
Exercise Rehabilitation Programmes
• Primary focus:
– Exercise promotion for patients with
Coronary Heart and Vascular Disease
• Overall aim:– Increase access to, and effectiveness of,
exercise as treatment for chronic illness
– Improve CV system efficiency and QoL,
– Reduce risk factors, symptom presentation and mortality risk
Contact: Michael McCluskey [email protected]
Injury Prevention in Youth Sport
• Primary focus:– To identify injury risk factors, develop appropriate
injury screening and prevention programmes for youth participants.
• Overall aim:– To reduce the physical and mental health burden
of injury incidence in youth sport and exercise
• Current sports include: – football, rugby, basketball and ice hockey
Contact: Professor Mark De Ste Croix
Alteration of Nutritional Intake Prior to Exercise Influences Energy Expenditure
• Primary focus: – Caffeine ingestion prior to exercise increases subsequent energy
expenditure (EE) & lowers perception of effort.
– Benefits of increased EE to those seeking weight loss,
– Increase adherence to exercise programmes as perceived “easier”.
• Possible future research/collaboration:– Could increased EE translate to increased weight loss long-term?
– Potential increase in adherence to intervention programme
Contact: Dr Matt Cole
Monday, March 16, 2015 58
Aetiology of Cardiovascular Disease
• Primary focus:
– Developing new non-invasive tests to determine early markers of CVD in ‘at risk’ populations
• Interests include: – Determining how exercise can
moderate the physiological effects of acute mental stress and provide an enhanced level of cardio-protection
Contact: Dr Simon Fryer [email protected]

Systematic reviews
• Early enteral nutrition– No benefit in keeping people nil by mouth – Possible benefit on complications and length
of hospital stay
• Chewing gum and postoperative recovery– 81 trials, 9072 study participants– Some evidence for a benefit of chewing gum
on time to first bowel movement and flatus
Qualitative studies
Patient views of perioperative nutrition
– To describe perioperative nutrition experiences and identify barriers/facilitators to feeding
– Semi-structured interviews with people who have undergone colorectal surgery (n=16)
– Information provision is poor, range of food available
Chewing gum randomised trial
• Trial outcomeo No effect on length of stay or measures of bowel functiono Possible reduced risk of vomiting post-operatively
• Observational analyseso Predictors of when people start eatingo Early feeding as a predictor of outcome(s)

Interrupting sedentary behaviour
• Intervention in middle aged adults• Randomised three-treatment crossover trial
o Uninterrupted sitting o Sitting interrupted every 20 mins by 2 mins of walking o Sitting interrupted every 20 mins by 2 mins of standing

2. How is meal size controlled?
Understanding decisions about portion size: The key to acceptable foods that reduce energy intake?
Expected satiety and expected satiation
Standard Comparison
Match the food on the right to be as filling as the food on the left
3. Why does eating rate influence appetite?
“Understanding eating topography: The key to reducing energy intake in humans?”
Horace Fletcher (1849–1919)
4. Behaviour change by stealth – can we nudge towards healthier dietary behaviour?
Nudge150: Combining small changes to foods to achieve a sustained decrease in energy intake
• The difficulty in eating less lies in feeling deprived of something that is rewarding (i.e. enjoyed), rather than not feeling full
• Our objective therefore is to find ways to maintain the reward value of smaller portions of food
5. Why do I choose that food?

Players showcase their achievements, seeking approval and validation from their peers
Players walk, the phone acts as pedometer
Players take on personalised ‘micro-challenges’ which build into ‘meta-challenges’
The use of personal and team challenges inspires people to walk more and spurs them on to keep trying
