Shocking Discoveries in the Lab

The untold story of my father’s early research into the chemistry of nutrition and disease

In the next two letters for our paid subscribers, I’m going to discuss a series of studies my father and his research team performed that highlight his early work and show how his thinking evolved through this period. I’m focusing on a subset of all the research he performed, which is far beyond the scope of this publication. He authored or coauthored over 350 research papers over the course of his career—an awesome accomplishment. The studies I’ve selected to share, while just a fraction of this body of work, capture the essence of my father’s early research journey. Before jumping in, I’d like to address an issue that may be important to some of our readers.
