Nutrition 2018 - which we have traditionally organized for the 17th time as a three-day conference of the DGEM, AKE and GESKES together with the professional association Oecotrophologie eV (VDOE) and the German Association of German Nutritionists (BDEM).

In recent years, hardly a subset of medicine has undergone such complex changes in paradigms as nutritional medicine. According to our understanding, nutritional medical intervention is no longer a necessary part of basic care, but an integral and effective part of therapy and prevention. That is why this year's congress motto is "Nutrition is Therapy and Prevention" and we want to discuss these complex medical, economic, but also social and ethical aspects and perspectives in detail with you during the various congress meetings.

The congress organizers have deliberately tried to compile a wide-ranging, multi-faceted congress program that meets the complex, multiprofessional facets of nutrition / nutritional medicine, is also highly actual, and also consciously addresses economic, social, ethical and all-day practical aspects.

• Special focus: Diet for cancer (together with DGHO and DKG)
