About Sylthea

Our Mission

Sylthea exists to provide accessible, evidence-based information about macronutrient science, specifically focusing on protein as a macronutrient, food sources, and nutritional science. We aim to explain the biochemistry, physiology, and composition data related to protein in human nutrition without commercial purpose or agenda.

Educational Purpose

All content published on Sylthea serves educational purposes. We do not sell products, offer services, provide personal consultations, or attempt to influence dietary decisions. Our role is to present information about how protein functions biochemically, which foods contain protein, and how digestibility and bioavailability vary across sources. Understanding the science supports informed personal decision-making based on individual circumstances.

Content Approach

Our articles examine macronutrient science through examination of:

• Biochemical structure and function of protein
• Protein digestion and absorption physiology
• Comparative food composition data from scientific databases
• Amino acid profiles and quality metrics (DIAAS, PDCAAS)
• Bioavailability across diverse food categories
• Research findings regarding protein metabolism and function

What We Are Not

Sylthea is not a medical resource, healthcare provider, or professional service. We do not diagnose conditions, recommend treatments, provide personalized advice, or attempt to guide individual decision-making. Users are responsible for evaluating information appropriateness to their circumstances and consulting professionals as needed.

Information Sources

Information presented on Sylthea derives from peer-reviewed scientific literature, established nutritional databases (USDA, McCance & Widdowson), WHO and FAO publications, and recognized nutritional science resources. We strive for accuracy while acknowledging that nutritional science evolves as research continues.
