Guides

These long-form guides cover topics that take more than a single article to get right — nutrition for longevity, brain health, life-stage-specific eating. Each guide pulls together the research across multiple areas and gives a practical framework you can actually apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between an article and a guide on this site?

Articles answer one focused question ("How much protein per day?"). Guides cover a topic that needs multiple angles to do justice — nutrition for longevity, brain health, women over 40 — pulling research from across the pillars into a single practical framework.

How are these guides researched?

Each guide starts from peer-reviewed sources and recommendations from public-health bodies (NIH, NHS, WHO, ISSN, EFSA). Claims are linked to a primary source, and every guide is reviewed by Nicole Adams, MPH, RD, CPT before publication.

How often are guides updated?

At least once a year for any guide that touches a YMYL topic — anything where someone might change their diet or supplements based on what we said. We also revisit guides whenever a meaningful new study or guideline lands.

Where should I start if I'm new to nutrition?

Start with the protein, fibre, and gut health basics — those three together cover most of the practical wins. Pick one guide and read it end-to-end; the others link into it where the topics overlap.
