About HonestNutrition

HonestNutrition exists to provide straightforward, factual information about nutrition science and how it applies to everyday life. This is an educational resource, not a commercial service or platform.

Our Approach

Science Over Simplification

Nutrition science is nuanced. Rather than offering simple formulas or universal claims, we explain how the science actually works in real life. We acknowledge complexity without oversimplifying.

Many commercial nutrition services make absolute claims about what works for everyone. The reality is that individual factors matter: genetics, health conditions, life circumstances, and preferences all influence nutrition.

Information Context

All content on HonestNutrition is provided for educational purposes only. Information is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Individual circumstances vary widely, and what applies broadly to nutrition science may not apply equally to any specific person.

For questions about personal health, nutrition, or dietary needs, consult qualified healthcare professionals who understand your individual situation.

Why This Resource Exists

There is often a gap between nutrition science and how nutrition is discussed in commercial contexts. Marketing often simplifies complex science into absolute claims. This site aims to bridge that gap by explaining what the science actually says, without selling anything or making promises.

The nutrition industry is large and commercial. Education about how nutrition actually works—separate from marketing—serves the public interest and helps people understand nutrition messaging more critically.
