As someone who started their ‘functional life’ journey listening to and reading the guidance of the ‘quacks’, when came across Danny on ‘the proof’ (also good) with Alan, I was shouting at my earbuds! LDL is not a problem, it’s particle size!! But I persevered , started reading the science (after...Read full review »

As a PhD and Registered Dietitian I really appreciate the quality, thoroughness, and objectivity of Sigma Nutrition Radio. In a sea of sensationalism, clickbait and misinformation, SNR is a breath of fresh air. Danny and Alan are very thorough and do an excellent job of explaining studies and...Read full review »

Great nutrition content

I love the scientific content. So interesting
laleluschautdermondzu via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 06/13/23
I used to follow a lot of the low-carbers that you have relegated to the Quack Asylum! I am so appreciative of this podcast, where the quackery is debunked with real scientific discussion. The breakdown of studies can be a bit dry, but I prefer it over the anecdotal evidence I used to listen to...Read full review »

I use to find the podcast interesting and informative but have since parted ways due to the high level of arrogance. Episode 400 is a great example of this. The hosts seemingly cherry picked controversial statements made by the “quacks” and then proceeded to mock them based on little supporting...Read full review »

Used to be better but now everything is either very shallow or hidden behind a paywall.

I’m late to this magnificent party - the bonus is that I have so much content to enjoy and absorb. Each episode sends me down a worm hole where I’m able to look up some of the contributors and their research. I acknowledge that a significant amount is above my head… but it’s good to extend and to...Read full review »

This is one of the most evidenced informed podcast on nutrition. The thing I couldn’t get past is the delivery of the content by these guys. They come across as pretty pretentious and there’s an element of academic snobbery. I hope they can change the delivery of their message.
guardgf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/22
The purpose of this podcast is not to provide information. It’s just people chatting about nutrition. They obviously have a lot of information to share but they bury it under lots and lots of extra words.
It failed. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/22
I find this podcast slightly frustrating. Some of the content is exceptional and when their focus is on exploring issues around health/nutrition science it can be extremely informative. However, their immature obsession with those they deem as “quacks” really does them a disservice. The level of...Read full review »

This show is now one of my favorite information sources for nutrition, health and fitness. I enjoy it usually on my way to work and the talks with the different guests are usually an inspiration. Please keep up the great work.

Science based, intresting guests, always relevant topics and very nice to hear and to follow
Katharina Moll via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 12/21/21
Really informative. I learned a lot. Not dogmatic. I am based in the US and like that Sigma Nutrition is based across the pond, which provides a different perspective.

Dubious science. Weak epidemiology. Same old mainstream dietary guidelines. Sad!
Radamist0 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 11/19/21
This podcast tackles highly relevant questions about nutrition and the relationship between diet, food and health in a thorough, properly evidenced and nuanced way. Its guests are people engaged in relevant research who are willing to speak openly about the shortcomings in the evidence as well as...Read full review »

Just discovers this podcast when Danny was on Simon hill podcast . It is truly brilliant. I can’t wait to listen to all the past shows . So informative and unbiased .

Like spending an hour at the Mayo Clinic - phenomenal content !
Sarabica via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/01/21
This is the only podcast to get the most and latest nutrition education for everyone. It does focus on athletic performance based nutrition but pertinent information for everyone interested in the evidence based nutrition practices. Danny is so knowledgeable and prepared when he interviews his...Read full review »

I really enjoy listening to the shows. I’ve logged in plenty of bike riding miles with Danny learning some really interesting things. Not being having a nutrition background I’m addicted to the next show! Thank you.
robinbbbbb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/21
As unbiased as possible, evidence-based into the detail, and great tips to improve your lifestyle for the sake of your own health, biodiversity and other living beings on this planet.

Once upon a time they offered good information and now without just a tacky show of mockery, terrible

Megtildere via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 08/18/21
It has been terrific to find an evidence based and entertaining podcast, free of the agendas and bias that taint some of the other ones available. Thank-you for the efforts you take to explain the latest studies so clearly.
Kylie Fardell via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/03/21
I appreciate that this podcast explores the middle ground rather than exploit the black and white thinking around nutrition science! I also appreciate the quack asylum. As a clinical dietitian working in Cleveland Ohio, I personally experience the harm of the dietary advice influenced by Dr. mark...Read full review »

Obesity is a mental problem that has nothing to do with the food you put in your mouth. RIght and the Earth is flat too.

Dubious science. Weak epidemiology. Same old mainstream advice. Well intentioned but confused and lost. Avoid!
anonlodico via Apple Podcasts · Poland · 06/27/21
Sadly guilty of the same faulty heuristics and baseless arguments of which it accuses others. In episode #363, they mention food deserts where, supposedly, people have no access to a supermarket but ample access to fast-food. This is a straw man argument born of Western privilege, already...Read full review »

Of course, I can’t say is listened to ALL podcasts on the matter, but I listened to many and this one is just the best. No other way to put it. From the deep dives with Danny and Alan on complex topics addressed with nuance, comprehensiveness and rigor, to the debunking of quacks, and the...Read full review »

So pleased to have come across Sigma Nutrition. Such a great resource for a nutrition science student like me (studying an MSc in Personalised Nutrition). Could not recommend it more.

Thank you very much for the amazing podcast episodes and sigma statements that you put together. The information and insight is truly invaluable!

If I can name only one single podcast that I will be subscribing and will have to stop listening to all others, I would choose Danny’s one. As a scientist, I really love his way of delivering information, range of topics and guests there. 💙
@kaxi_kexit_fit via Apple Podcasts · Czech Republic · 04/08/21
This is a great podcast for balanced, evidence-based information on nutrition. Love this podcast!!
rhath4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/21
It was a lot better when Danny didn’t have a cohost. Alan is a smart guy but I find myself dozing off when he speaks. Also annoying how he espouses his political views often. I loved when it was just Danny having different guests each episode with topics in their area of expertise.
Ryan Burnham via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/21
A very solid and serious nutrition podcast that manages to make evidence and data accesible and entertaining!
Pakoli_1503 via Apple Podcasts · Spain · 03/02/21
Great guests, great questions and I’m learning so much. Thank you Danny
judepower via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/15/21
Best nutrition podcast in the world by a million miles. Not only is Danny knowledgable in nutrition, his side skill is as an amazing podcast host. He’s a natural & has only gotten better with time. His humility is definitely part of the recipe for this amazing podcast.
Mac-Nutrition.com via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/21
Alan needs to keep his political and religious beliefs out of the podcast. Take your own advice and stay in your area of expertise
IanA2011 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/20
These podcasts are really great and educational (as a junior nutrition coach in learning). I like the tone of voice as well. Good speakers and great content.

I was told by one of our lecturer to listen to this podcast, and I could say that this is probably one of the best advice that I have ever been given at my uni. Every conversation is fabulous and inspiring. I have been really entertained by the ‘Quack Asylum’, and I am very looking forward to new...Read full review »
