Six years after losing a sister to a genetic disorder, Dr Steve Sheiner wrote the post marking it, and it tells you why the rest of the blog is so preoccupied with what people put into their bodies.
The food writing is sceptical and relentless. Which additives served in one country are banned in others. Whether any bottled water is genuinely safe. Whether a fast food chain reducing the fat in its fries is a step towards better food or towards more chemicals. He is at his best asking what is left to eat rather than announcing an answer.
The eye posts are where the professional shows. Dry eyes get explained as something increasing rather than something you were unlucky with, and a treatment arriving as drops rather than injections gets reported carefully.
There is a piece on eating well without spending more, which is the practical answer to everything else.
Read the food posts, then the one about his sister.
