Latest in Clinical Nutrition: Volume 34
The “volumes” refer to a series of DVDs (now digital only) upon which NutritionFacts.org is based (all proceeds donated to this charity). The DVDs give folks the opportunity to sneak preview videos months ahead of time, watch them all straight through, and share as gifts, but there’s nothing on the DVDs that won’t eventually end up online for free at NutritionFacts.org. You can also buy the DVD streaming online or as a download in full! Volume 34 is the twenty-ninth NutritionFacts.org DVD covering the peer-reviewed scientific nutrition literature published between Spring 2011 and Spring 2017.
