dc.descriptionA Joint FAO/WHO Expert Consultation on the Role of Dietary Fats and Oils in Human Nutrition was held in Rome from 21 to 30 September 1977. The meeting was opened by Dr. E.M. DeMaeyer of the World Health Organization, Geneva. In his opening statement, Dr. DeMaeyer expressed the appreciation of FAO and WHO to the participants. There are in the world millions of people whose health suffers because of an insufficiency of the right kinds of food. By contrast, among prosperous people, diseases associa ted with dietary excesses are common. The principal nutritional problem of the developing countries appears to be a deficit of dietary energy, whereas that of developed countries is overconsumption. Furthermore, the contrast in fat intakes is very great. The problem of dietary fat in human nutrition is controversial and complex and is, in fact, one of the most important questions yet faced by nutritionists.
