About EN
Environmental Nutrition (EN) is the award-winning, independent newsletter that opens your eyes to what you put in your mouth.
Are you floundering in the swamp of conflicting advice on low-carb diets, vitamin E, eating fish, genetically modified foods? EN offers authoritative, reliable, practical guidance on what works and what doesn't in balancing your diet to protect against disease, manage your weight, minimize risk from pesticides, and live a longer, healthier life.
Every month, the EN editorial team reviews scores of research reports, talks to the experts and the regulators, analyzes the information and provides sensible, practical--and sometimes surprising--bottom-line guidance on foods that will, for instance, help lower the risk of heart disease, cancer or diabetes.
Among as many as 15 articles a month are also cutting-edge reports on questionable "miracle" supplements and cautions on food safety, as well as succinct updates on current research. EN's popular "Nutrition Comparison" charts offers shopping shortcuts by check-marking best buys among brand-name foods.
A "newsletter that gets things right," said the New York Times.

THE HISTORY
The 1970's was the heyday of fad diets, ranging from Zen macrobiotics to grapefruit and noodles for weight loss. There was little, if any, reliable information on food and nutrition for health-conscious consumers or even for specialists concerned with diet and health.
Environmental Nutrition was founded in 1977 to fill that gap. Since then, EN has been guiding readers to make the best choices for their whole environment of nutrition. That means we will be right beside you as you navigate making food choices that affect your health and that of your environment. Our focus is helping you to avoid all of the pitfalls that can occur when you make the wrong food and nutrition decisions.
