There are so many places to get nutrition information on the internet – and NO – they are not all true, qualified, current or telling the whole story!

My goal is to make all of this nutrition information much easier to understand (without all the medical techno-babel) and implement in a healthier lifestyle.

I research and only use verified sources from qualified individuals and/or institutions. Here is a partial list of the most common, but not all, sources that I use:

  2. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration How To Understand and Use the Nutrition Facts Label
