Despite significant investment in culinary medicine education, its impact on patient outcomes remains unclear. This session will explore the current state of research and identify opportunities to assess and enhance the implementation of culinary medicine in patient communities. Key questions include: What evidence exists regarding the effectiveness of culinary medicine interventions? How can we measure improvements in patient outcomes resulting from these initiatives? What lessons have been learned from introducing culinary medicine in underserved and diverse community settings? How can medical schools and academic programs play a greater role in advancing research on the effectiveness of these programs? Join us for a dynamic discussion on translating culinary medicine from theory to practice, addressing gaps in knowledge, and engaging stakeholders to maximize its potential in improving public health.
