NuSI - Nutrition Science Initiative

NuSi - a non-profit organization founded by the renowned science author Gary Taubes, and Dr. Peter Attia, launched yesterdary. I'm very excited about this group. In brief, their mission is to provide funding for research around one of the most fundamental questions: what should we be eating?

Check out this video below from Peter Attia to learn more about NuSi. And, if you're looking for something good to read, I wholeheartedly recommend Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes to bring you up to speed on the state of our knowledge about human nutrition.

  1. Hi DrWillbe!

    I follow Peter Attia's blog, so I thought it was really cool to see you linking to the NuSI. I too really enjoyed Good Calories, Bad Calories, but I've become skeptical of the carbohydrate hypothesis. Have you read any of Stephan Guyenet's blog?
