BARQUERA, Simon et al. Nutricia Code: nutrition and conflict of interest in academia. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2020, vol.62, n.3, pp.313-318.  Epub 16-Mayo-2022. ISSN 0036-3634.  https://doi.org/10.21149/11291.

To combat malnutrition in all its forms, actions must be integrated from society as a whole. The main interest of the actors involved in these actions should be health. However, there are actors with conflict of interest that interfere in the design, planning, implementation and monitoring of public health nutrition policies. In order to mitigate the adverse effect that result from these conflicts, from evidence generation to the design and implementation of policies, this Code is proposed. It invites the nutrition and health community to adopt it, promote it and subscribe it, and to favor the advancement of actions and policies without industry interference to address the problem of malnutrition.

Palabras llave : conflict of interest; nutrition; obesity; malnutrition; policies; food industry.
