Nutrient Notes

Nutrition and wellness, with the sources attached

About

Nutrient Notes is a single-author blog about nutrition and wellness, written to be read with the sources attached.

Every post starts from the trials themselves rather than from a press release. Where the evidence is thin, the post says so. Numbers are given with units and a source, and each claim that rests on a study carries a numbered citation you can follow to the reference list at the foot of the page.

Posts carry a visible “updated” date. When newer trials change the picture, the post is revised and that date moves — there is no separate archive of stale versions.

Who writes this

Nutrient Notes. Reads the trials so you do not have to. Every number here carries a citation you can check. No post is sponsored, and no advertiser sees a post before it is published. The relationships that do exist are on the disclosure page.

How posts are checked

Every post starts from peer-reviewed records pulled from PubMed, and is written from what those papers’ abstracts actually report. Papers that have been retracted are dropped before writing starts.

Each reference in a post carries a sentence copied word for word from the paper’s own abstract. Before a post is scheduled, an automated check fetches every reference again from PubMed or Crossref and confirms four things: the title matches, the first author and year match, the paper has not been retracted, and the quoted sentence really appears in the abstract. A post with a reference that fails any of these cannot be published. Every figure in the text must carry a numbered citation, and a separate check rejects numbers that do not.

The reference list links each paper to its PubMed or DOI record, so any number can be traced to its source in one click. Posts show the date the sources were last re-checked as well as the date the text changed, and a post older than twelve months is flagged for review.
