This one day workshop took place in November 2020. The workshop aimed to adopt an interdisciplinary approach to understanding nutrition and appetite regulation during periods of physical activity transition across the lifespan and to explore opportunities for future collaborative research. The talks explored challenges to researching nutrition and appetite regulation across different types of physical activity transitions and generated novel and timely research questions to be addressed.
It has been well established that physical activity is crucial for optimal appetite regulation. Overeating and weight gain are more likely to occur when physical activity levels are low because of impaired appetite sensitivity to energy needs. The impact of changes, and specifically, reductions in physical activity on appetite regulation and nutrition is poorly understood. This workshop brought together experts from different disciplines to identify and discuss the challenges to optimal nutrition and appetite regulation during periods of physical activity transition.
