| The newsletter is written by the Chairman of the Department of
Nutrition & Food Science at Wayne State University in Detroit, MI.
Hes also the Editor in Chief of the Journal of the American College
of Nutrition. The articles are short and to the point, and you will
learn from them. (NNF is not connected with either the University,
nor with JACN. Nor are we affiliated with any company marketing
supplements or food.) |
| The scope of the discussion will include questions about nutrition,
health, nutritional treatments of illness, nutritional content of
various foods. Questions about the ethical considerations of eating
any food are specifically not allowed. |
| RATIONALE:
Right now, there are a significant number of posts on sci.med.nutrition
that are either sales pitches for nutritional products or cross-posted
arguments over the ethics of eating meat. The ethical considerations
for eating meat are on topic themes for talk.politics.animals and
rec.food.veg - they are not on topic for sci.med.nutrition. Sales pitches
are not welcome in sci groups. The on topic discussions have become
the minority in the last year, and as a result many regular contributors
have left the newsgroup. |
