There is no shortage of information on healthy lifestyles, but how accurate is the information we receive and is it supported by evidence? Here I will examine the evidence for recommended lifestyle behaviours and publish a “quick takeaway” and a “full deal” evidence based review.
Topics are grouped under two headings, diet and physical activity. To access the reviews click on the heading and you will be able to read the quick takeaway. The full deal reviews follow the quick takeaway. You can read these on the site or download a pdf.
There is also a list of topics that I am working on and hope to publish here soon.
Why me?
The simple answer is I am interested in healthy lifestyles and I have the time to do the research. I believe I also have some useful skills an experience having a degree in natural sciences, a masters in information science, a PhD with research on healthy lifestyle behaviours, and a career spent collecting information from a wide range of sources and making sense of it all.
