Evidence-Based Nutrition with Dr. Layne Norton
Norton cuts through nutrition noise with hard evidence. Supplements worth taking, plant vs. animal protein, meal timing myths, and why most nutrition advice is based on correlation studies that prove nothing.
Canon
•
Norton argues that the health benefits of regular exercise dwarf the benefits of any dietary intervention. If you had to choose between a perfect diet with no exercise or a mediocre diet with regular exercise, choose the exercise.
Highlights
•

Norton explains why observational nutrition studies (the kind that produce headlines like 'red meat causes cancer') cannot establish causation, only correlation, and why the media consistently misrepresents this limitation.
