Il mondo contemporaneo è caratterizzato da una pletora di stimoli al consumo e da una diversità e ricchezza di alimenti senza precedenti.
Tuttavia, di fronte a un numero inedito di etichette informative, i consumatori spesso preferiscono utilizzare scorciatoie euristiche. Sebbene il cibo sia la base della nutrizione, il contesto del consumo e l’ambiente in cui viene fruito giocano un ruolo fondamentale nella sua apprezzabilità. Le tendenze alimentari, con la loro periodica e ciclica condanna di specifici alimenti o nutrienti, seguita dalla loro inevitabile riabilitazione, generano un’incertezza e una mancanza di orientamento pervasiva. La neofobia alimentare dei minori, unita a un’educazione alimentare inadeguata e alla monotonia dei pasti domestici, comporta problemi significativi di soddisfazione e una riduzione degli sprechi nelle mense scolastiche. Questi fattori sono esaminati in profondità per sottolineare l’importanza cruciale dell’educazione alimentare, necessaria per prevenire complicazioni di salute a lungo termine, in particolare tra i consumatori più giovani.
La sostenibilità è una priorità globale, e ognuno di noi può fare la propria parte per creare un futuro più verde e più sano. Esploriamo come possiamo integrare la sostenibilità in alcuni aspetti chiave della nostra vita:
Insieme Possiamo Fare la Differenza!

Robert is a physiotherapist from Germany. He finished his master’s degree in physiotherapy in sports at German Sports University Cologne and PhD at Brandenburg University of Technology. Both theses were related to knee injuries and long-term deficits after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.
He is currently the Head of Research at Center of Orthopedics and Traumatology at the Brandenburg University Hospital and Chair of the ESSKA Rehabilitation Committee. He also runs the outpatient clinic for physiotherapy P3 together with is wife. His main interest in research and clinical work is related to athletes with knee injuries.
Since his first steps in his career into orthopedics in the mountains of St. Moritz, Switzerland, Tom is fascinated by this small, but cruciate ligament, which has a size of just a bit more than 1 inch (about 2,5 – 3cm) – the acl.
Tom Patt was trained in Switzerland and The Netherlands, with Dr AU Urfer (St Moritz, CH), Dr P Burkart (Luzern, CH), Professor W Mueller, Prof N. Friederich (Basel, CH), Prof. RK Marti (Amsterdam, NL) & dr. Marcel Driessen (Delft, NL).
After heading a private clinic in Delft / The Netherlands for 9 years, he is now working as a consultant at bergmanclinics, Rotterdam / The Netherlands. Tom’s professional interests are sports knee surgery, and he has specialized in mainly arthroscopic knee interventions.
Since 2010, his other real orthopedic passion has been prevention of knee lesions in children and adolescents. In this context he is president of ESMA/ESSKA (2024-26) and co- leads the workgroup for prevention, the GUARDIANS of the ACL (a subgroup of the ACL study group), as well as being member of other European organizations such as the German Knee Society, GOTS, AGA, etc.
The ESMA/ESSKA risk reducing program “prevention for all” was developed by him in collaboration with Dr. Henrique Jones / Portugal.
Tom is often invited to speak at national and international meetings, in 2024 i.e.: Litouwen, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Czech Republic, The Netherlands & France.
An acl rupture is a life changing event, especially in the young ones & we should do everything to prevent this from happening at all.
