40 Things You Should Know – The Science (part 1)

Ok so this ended being a little longer than anticipated. After putting together all the research and study abstracts, it turned out to be 48 pages of text and over 16,000 words! I will be breaking it up in a few sub parts so it will be easier to read and navigate.

This first part I have linked a number of articles and research reviews that directly relate d to some of  the ’40 Things You Should Know’ points.

I could have linked many more especially from Lyle McDonald’s site but chose only to do a couple of articles but the majority are his research review of a number of research papers (some of which I have used). Alan Aragon, Emma-Leigh Synnott, Martin Berkhan and Jamie Hale have helped in a great way with this and allowing me access to their work, articles and research reviews.

For more in-depth articles I suggest you check out their websites.
