coltrane-
i have read this book already, before you suggested reading it.
you might be suprised by this, since you seem to think i dont know shit about anything, but i actually have read quite a bit and i speak from what i have learned from EXPERTS..not just shit i make up.
in my opinion, yes, chris aceto knows nutrition. but how well can one person actually "know" nutrition? there is only so much to learn on the overall subject... and there are millions of people around the world that have a great knowledge on the basics of nutrition. chris aceto cant know ANYMORE about the general fielld than any of the rest of us. but he acts like he does.. and he is always talking about some "latest greatest" supplement that know ones ever heard about, and that youw ont hear about again after he mentions it.
does he know more than i do? of course.
but i know just as much about the general field of nutrition. because there is only so much to know.
if you want my opinion of truly good nutritionists... check out mario di pasquale, lyle mcdonald, dave palumbo, milos sarcev and last but not least dan duchaine
actually there is so much to know in the field of nutrition that people base phds around single nutrient metabolism, particular enzymes etc...
your analogy is like saying einstein cant know more about physics because there is only so much to know. Another one of your examples bites the dust, you should read a book on logic and lose all the fallacies you commit on this site daily. I know more about nutrition then you because i have been educated in it and continue to be. You have no idea how complex biochemistry is, and perhaps couldnt name one of the thousands of enzymes involved in digestion, the basics on the krebs or citric acid cycle, gluconeogenesis, glycolysis, the electron transport chaing, mitochondrial vs cytoplasmic processes or the complete metabolism of tyrosine. the interplay in the body is mindboggling and no one person could ever hope to know all the processes, not even close. Thats not even including pharmacology
you cant get an education in this off the internet and there is more to this then you can fathom, so yes experts know more then you, and each knows more about particular topics. they talk in laymens terms for people like you.
so my advice to you is stop acting like you know it all, because you dont even know the basics.
