Examine.com
Independent research database that summarises the scientific evidence on dietary supplements, nutrients and diets, rating effects by outcome and study quality. Readers can check what trials actually show about a supplement's benefits, dosage and safety before acting on nutrition claims.
NutritionFacts.org
Nonprofit site founded by physician Michael Greger that summarises peer-reviewed nutrition studies in short videos, articles and podcasts, searchable by food and disease. It argues consistently for plant-based eating, so readers can follow the research behind that position and check its sources.
eatright.org
EatRight.org is the consumer site of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, offering evidence-based nutrition guidance, healthy eating tips, meal planning ideas, and resources to locate a registered dietitian.
Biochemical, Physiological, and Molecular Aspects of Human Nutrition
A graduate-level reference that explains nutrition through biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology: digestion and absorption, macronutrient metabolism, vitamins, minerals, and regulation of energy balance. Readers can trace how specific nutrients act at the cellular and molecular level.
nutrition.org
Nutrition.org is an educational resource that explains nutrition fundamentals, with accessible explanations of macronutrients and micronutrients, dietary guidelines, and key nutrition concepts. It provides evidence-based articles and learning materials for students and anyone seeking foundational knowledge in nutrition.
Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, and Metabolism
A textbook on the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins, and minerals, emphasizing biochemical pathways, gene-nutrient interactions, and hormonal control. It prepares readers to explain how nutrient intake is regulated and used at the cellular level in health and disease.
