"Joanne Larsen is a registered dietician who seems to have talked to every person on the planet about their food intake at one time or another.
At least you'd think so to look at her archives of dietary questions and answers.
Users email her their questions regarding cholesterol intake, body-fat ratios, weight loss plans, diabetic concerns, what-have-you, and Joanne answers them and then places the exchange in her archives for all to learn from. There are a few places on this site that don't qualify for Lynx-friendly status, such as her Healthy Body Calculator® which is littered with charts and graphs. However, they are personalized to the information you fill in, and it is the sort of information that would be very difficult to present non-graphically. This reviewer was disturbed to learn that a diet of coffee and cigarettes, coupled with sleeping 15 hours a day, is unhealthy. Damn!"

"Registered dietitcian Joanne Larsen knows her four food groups and then some. In this simple but effective site, you can read questions and Larsen's intelligent and helpful answers about vegetarianism, alcohol, fiber intake, and dozens of other diet-related topics. You can even email your own food query to her. My favorite question so far: " I'm hearing a lot about junk food lately. No one has given a definition of what foods are junk. Can you give me a list of junk foods?" Larsen's response is detailed and revealing. And yes, gum *is* a food, and a junky one at that.
