The Carbohydrates Committee addresses outstanding scientific issues through discovery, research tools and translational messaging related to how carbohydrate-rich foods, food components and formulations are associated with consumption behavior, diet quality and health outcomes.

Why is this research important?

Carbohydrates are an important source of energy and nutrients in the food supply. The committee focuses its work on understanding sugar, fiber, and carbohydrate quality as they relate to human health.

Research Focus Areas:

  • Advance scientific evidence and research tools to further understanding of how fiber relates to human health outcomes.
  • Characterize nutrient intakes and overall diet quality of various carbohydrate restricted or modified diet patterns.
  • Clarify and communicate research tools examining causal relationships between energy containing food/ingredients and body composition.
  • Promote informed decision-making on food choices - focused on carbohydrate quality.
