About RealisticNutrition
An Independent Hub for Understanding Nutrition Science
RealisticNutrition exists to provide accessible, evidence-based information about nutrition science and everyday food decisions. We recognise that understanding how food affects health is complex, context-dependent, and deeply personal.
Our approach differs from much of the nutrition information available online. We do not:
- Sell products, programmes, or coaching services
- Provide individualised dietary advice or recommendations
- Make promises about specific health outcomes
- Present one approach as universally right
- Simplify science into false certainties
Instead, we explain what research shows, acknowledge what remains uncertain, and describe how real life shapes food decisions. We present nutrition as a complex, evolving field where individual variation is the norm.
Our Perspective
Realistic nutrition understanding acknowledges:
- Individual variation in how bodies process and respond to food
- The profound influence of context, culture, and lifestyle on eating
- The difference between what science knows with confidence and what remains uncertain
- The limitations of nutrition research and the complexity of human physiology
- The role of social, emotional, and environmental factors in food decisions
This perspective means we present information objectively, avoid oversimplification, and help people think critically about nutrition.
