Many moons ago, @kevinh-phd.bsky.social and I talked about a book we wished existed. No fads, no weight loss hacks, no fear-mongering -- just the science of how food works in your body. Thrilled to share that we wrote it!

It continues to baffle me that *everyone* is hostile to Big Anything, with this one glaring exception.
Big Supplement gets a free pass to sell you shit you don't need, might be harmful, and is often very expensive.

Kevin Hall has done some of the most interesting nutrition research I've ever seen.
And now he's resigning from the NIH because, well, let him tell it.
This is a huge loss for nutrition science.
