    Ah. The proprieter of the 7 Day Food Babe Sugar Detox and a flat earth theorist (david wolfe).

    Safe to say you're right that they're not experts. lol

    Add these two to my "worst" list.

    Same. Their followers also have a habit of crusading and reporting any info that conflicts with them. Of course, Food Babe actually sells things that contain the same stuff she advocates against.

    best: Lyle McDonald
    worst: Menno

    I legit lol'd at listing Menno as the worst.

    Curious what topics he has that cause you to say this.

    Sorry that was a bit tongue in cheek, mostly because Menno's crankiness with Lyle.

    A real response would be Lee Fulkerson, Greger...

    I second David 'Avocado' Wolfe as one of the worst. Even if the man does advocate eating chocolate (which I'm all for) he seems to spend most of his time spinning on a unicorns forehead.

    I also put forward Yoni Freedoff as one of the best.

    I was very impressed with Tom Venuto's book - Burn the fat, feed the muscle.

    Found it very informative and lots of common sense with the approach.

    Best: Layne Norton, Katie Coles and Eric Helms/3DMJ Team
    Worst: Anyone that confuses things. So much crap out there it's hard to start naming the worst. Just stick with the best.
