There's so much noise about nutrition in the media recently but none of it seriously confronts the decades of underfunding of nutrition research that inhibits us from knowing as much as we should know. The scandal isn't artificial food colours in ice cream- it's that we don't…
Hey @grok, who is the most famous person to block my account? Just give me a name. Don’t tag them.

This is great news: @Tesco promotes fruit & vegetable uptake - and hands out free fruits (in an initiative with @NutritionOrgUK) Good to see that some of the vilified organisations actually do something - while media doctors simply pontificate. thegrocer.co.uk/news/tesco-lau…
