Re:

Thank you, more important is how are you? The Bruce and Marsha Moskowitz foundation is supporting this foundation which we set up. We also support an initiative of healthy cooking for children and families. We are a public foundation a 501 c3.

The Cancer Nutrition Consortium is a public Foundation (501c3) composed of 8 research academic centers including Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Dana Farber, NYU, Cedar Sinai, the Culinary institute of America and the Biomedical Research and Education Foundation. Together we have a scientific group developing new products to license to industry to improve the lives of patients undergoing treatment for cancer. The products are based on the two year research study of 1200 patients. Our first two products include an American ginseng that dramatically reduces fatigue during chemotherapy. Also based on the survey we developed a "clean ensure" that removes the soy and all artificial ingredients and comes as a powder. We have a study that is showing preference in head and neck patients and women undergoing radical surgery for ovarian cancer. We also developed a frizzed dried small lozenge that dissolves in the mouth and delivers probiotics that previously relied on a large capsule that could not be used in patients with swallowing problems or in pediatrics.

This is the only model where medical center translational scientists are working with Culinary Institute of America food and flavor scientists, nutritionists and industry to develop new nutritional products. Out of the initial research in cancer we now have been asked by other specialties in the same academic centers to work with gastroenterology, geriatrics and endocrinology to develop products using the same team approach.

Enclosed is documentation of our consortium.
