Currently, one of my family members frequently sees a lot of conflicting nutrition and medical info on the internet with various influencers, so it can be hard for them to decipher what’s true or not. Are there any channels with easy to understand shorts, that also meet the general scientific consensus?
Liam (The Plant Slant) does short form video that’s aimed at combating misinformation and giving simple advice for forming nutrition habits
There’s gotta be some way to @liam from here!
He’s a good bean.
I would recommend a medical professional over social media.
None… never get medical advice from YouTube or any social media

Dude is a scientist who is doing this channel as his retirement project. High quality production value and science based.
Honestly, if you want to start researching, Doctors Eric Berg and Ken Berry will have some good information on what causes what based upon nutrient, vitamin, or other deficiencies in your body, Dr. Berg especially. Research those to fact-check, as they usually have some fantastic evidence to back them up (in my opinion).
Keep in mind that Dr. Berg maintains a specific form of ketogenic, while Dr. Berry is a carnivore (meaning you don’t eat any plants at all, but animal fat, meat, butter, and milk).
nutritionbykylie is probably one of the best channels to heal your relationship with food. I got her cookbook which has a load of healthy food without compromises.
Yes I came here to mention her. A few of her recipes are in my rotation and she’s the only celeb chef I can say that about. Her recipes are so simple.
DR. Layne Norton, mostly for interpreting different studies better and pointing out the misinformation and what’s wrong with what some of the influencers say.
Ben Carpenter for the positive mental health side of dieting.
I’d add in Sean Nalewanyj and Fazlifts for the lifting/training side as well, because dieting and training go hand in hand, everyone should do it and it’s filled with as much misinformation as nutrition space.
Thanks
Mama doctor, doctor Mike: Mama deals with gynecology primarily, Mike is more of a generalist that also talks with other specialists. Even if you don’t like him, use him to discover others.
For mental stuff: HealthygamerGG, Thais Gibson, and Mantalks these three have different perspectives on the same issues, and focus on different aspects of mental health.
