Nutrition & diet science Videos Recommended on Hacker News (60)

Nutrition & diet science is one of the 150 topics Hacker News readers organize their video recommendations around. These 60 videos each earned real recommendations in real HN threads between 2010 and 2026 — 197 recommendations in total — and they're ranked by how many separate months the community kept coming back to them, not by view count.

Nutrition: diets, metabolism, seed oils, sugar, fasting, gut microbiome, food science debunking, supplements, obesity, evidence-based eating, dietary controversies.

Why HN keeps sending people here — on Sugar: THE BITTER TRUTH: “This is one of the best nutritional videos I've ever seen.” — an HN commenter, 2010.
