  • Last but certainly not least.. we're thrilled to have Paula Guerra joining us from SGS Nutrasource! Paula will be kicking off our symposium with a discussion on the Global Prebiotic Association's Standards of Evidence, how this initiative came about within GPA’s Scientific & Technical and Regulatory Committees, as well as the development process. This is a critical tool for GPA and its membership as it guides the evaluation of evidence supporting the classification of a prebiotic ingredient as ‘emerging’, ‘novel’, or ‘established’. 💻 We hope you'll join us next Wednesday and be a part of the conversation that’s driving the next generation of prebiotics. https://lnkd.in/g-P2d-Zq
