A good site that warehouses and rates others sites about nutrition. There
are 10 categories (ranging from gender based to age based, information
for journalists and educators).
http://www.nutrition.org/
More of a scientific site (the site for the magazine). It’s the
place where scientists publish papers surrounding the field of nutrition.
http://www.ag.uiuc.edu/~food-lab/nat/
This is a practical site where you can analyze your diet. It’s also
got an “energy calculator.”
http://www.exhibits.pacsci.org/nutrition/default.html
This is more of a kids site, designed to get kids involved by playing
“games,” all the while learning about nutrition.
http://www-sci.lib.uci.edu/HSG/Nutrition.html
This site has the same basic information and ideas, but it is a bit more
practical because it offers recipes.
www.fitness.gov
President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports
Thought I’d grab the obvious. It’s got everything.
www.justmove.org
Practical and functional. Designed for getting people moving (obviously)
but to get those whom are not active, active.
http://en.fitness.com/
Has tips on weight loss, exercise and nutrition.
http://dmoz.org/Health/Fitness/
A very elaborate collection of fitness links
www.global-fitness.com
This is a pretty cool site. It’s got “the usual” (ideas
and tips about fitness and exercise), but it also includes specific “how-to”
instruction, video instruction and healthy recipes.
