    Just going to keep this short and sweet. :D

    Looking to learn about nutrition and the science behind it. Could you recommend articles, sources or some authors that I could start off with?

    sisson, kresser, wolff, briffa

    Sissons book is possibly the best and most rounded out there right now and easy to get into a read quickly - Its called the primal blueprint

    i would stick with blogs and sites personally as the info in books will tend to be a little dated

    True, but there's a lot of bad information out there, and a lot of presenting opinions/theories/half-baked conclusions as scientific facts. I'd recommend books as they're more likely to be reliable and will have references/reviews.

    a good site/blog can and does use references when needed
