When looking for nutritional information, 2 doctors guys always show up in Youtube searches: KenDBerryMD and Dr. Eric Berg.

I don’t know much about either, but a cursory search shows Berg is a quack and it looks like Ken promotes nonsense like the carnivore diet.

Why are these two so prevalent on youtube? Neither of them are actual nutritionists, but they’re everywhere when searching for nutrition information.

Where are the real nutritionists? Why aren’t they putting forth more effort to make sure nutrition knowledge is accessible and accurate?

Part of me is genuinely thinking it’s because of money. They’d rather only share their knowledge in secret with the people paying them because if more people knew about nutrition, then they wouldn’t be as necessary.
