Send us a text How agricultural practices influence the nutrient density of foods, particularly meat, and the importance of hidden compounds beyond standard nutrition labels. TOPICS DISCUSSED: Nutrient density profiling: Labs analyze thousands of compounds beyond macros and vitamins; this “dark matter” includes phytonutrients that may support health despite not being essential.Phytonutrients in foods: Plant secondary metabolites like polyphenols act as antioxidants and influence pathways like...

Evaluating Science: Clinical Trials, Epidemiology, Preclinical Studies & Mendelian Randomization | George Davey Smith | 265
Send us a text Methods & challenges of establishing causal relationships in health research, emphasizing epidemiology, randomized trials, and genetic approaches. Topics: Epidemiology: Studies disease influences using observational designs like case-control and prospective cohorts, plus trials, to identify patterns and test hypotheses.Hierarchy of evidence critique: Rejects rigid pyramids favoring RCTs, as all studies can be biased; advocates triangulation integrating varied data types for...
