I have been involved in Nutrition for a number of years now. From early days of lifting weights and gaining an interest in optimised nutrition, to formalising this with academic education through to Masters of Science in Human Nutrition. Finally, 10+ years of practicing nutrition in the commercial setting. I work in the food industry as a researcher, and while some would think this can impair the impartiality of my thoughts, I say. Bollocks. I don't care for nutrition dogma, I don't care for status quo, I don't care most of the claptrap that excretes from the public health bodies. I enjoy the data. I have a modest dislike for epidemiology. I also like pizza, coffee, eggs benedict and good beer. Some of my personal bias comes from these likes.
This is an outlet. A way to develop my line of thinking in some areas. Solidify and enriched by brain dumping rants on various topics.
Hopefully my first commentary will be on Evidence Based Nutrition. Which is similar to Evidence Based Medicine - a concept born from McMaster University, a lovely little place in Hamilton, Ontario.
