Sophie Bennett
Sophie writes the health and nutrition explainers. Her editorial focus includes nutrients, dietary patterns, energy metabolism, hydration, supplements, sports nutrition and the interpretation of health research for general readers.
She approaches health content by separating established evidence from preliminary findings and by making study limitations clear. Health-related material requiring clinical interpretation should be checked by an appropriately qualified medical reviewer before publication and updated when important new evidence or guidance becomes available.
