Our Style

NutriScape.NET seeks to provide consumers, dietitians, and medical providers with a central source for science based, practical and easy to understand perspectives on nutrition.  To this end, we avoid the blog style of writing that is designed more to entertain than to educate.  That said, we try just as hard to avoid the academic style of term papers as well.

Variety, Controversy and Nutrition Quackery

NutriScape seeks to project a highly professional image for dietitians.  This will best be served by embracing a wide variety of nutritional approaches and discussing the research available on new approaches to nutritional concerns while avoiding excessive controversy.

When writing about non-credible nutritional approaches and quackery, we seek to project a super-respectful tone while exposing legitimate concerns.

We want to promote you!  We’d like you to include a short biography at the end of the article.  This may link to your own blog or social media site.

Planning Your Article

When planning your article, keep in mind that the ideal article length is between 350 and 600 words.

Outlining

When writing for the web, it is important to make your article easy to scan through. This can be accomplished by outlining the heading structure for your article in advance. A great tool for brainstorming, organizing, and outlining is MindMeister. The free account allows you to keep and share up to 3 mind maps at no cost and it is very easy to learn and use.
