Plait's guidance draws on widely recognised public health and nutrition bodies. The list below names the organisations whose published guidance informs our approach. We do not list specific studies or page references here to avoid implying a precise citation we have not verified for your situation. The fully referenced source list will be published before launch.
- World Health Organization (WHO)
- National Institutes of Health (NIH), including the Office of Dietary Supplements
- British Dietetic Association (BDA)
- The British Menopause Society
- National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)
- Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics
Naming these bodies is not an endorsement by them of Plait. Their guidance is general, and our nutrition figures are estimated. For advice specific to you, speak with your own clinician.
