Julian, there are quite a bit of typos on your site. Copy with typos doesn't lend credibility. Would you like some assistance with proofreading? Congratulations on your work, and I think the site is a good idea. I wonder: perhaps since you're offering your site as an alternative to broscience [as linked] you could use phrases like "we believe" or "it is theorized" or support your nutritional claims with the science behind them. For instance you say that it is a good idea to supplement omega fats, despite getting plenty of them in the diet. There are those who would disagree and say that as long as you're maintaining ~1:1-1:3 ratios of o3:o6 you're a-ok.

  Personal pet peeve of mine is saying "brought" when you mean "bought" on the page: http://www.bodyhack.com/men/six-pack-and-11-5-body-fat-in-12-weeks#buy http://www.bodyhack.com/men/six-pack-and-11-5-body-fat-in-12... *though my written skills are poor so it is like the pot calling the kettle black!

I wouldn't normally comment on this, but since you're offering proofreading services... :-) "Julian, there are quite a bit of typos on your site." Maybe you meant: "Julian, there are quite a few typos on your site." The phrase "quite a bit of" refers to something you measure, not something you count. And it would never be worded "there are quite a bit of..." So you might say: "There are quite a few eggs in that basket." "There is quite a bit of snow on that mountain." (edit with one more thought...) One good way to help keep this straight is to remove the word "quite": "There are a few eggs in that basket." "There is a bit of snow on that mountain."

  I think this comment is unnecessary in its current form - do you have anything to add regarding typos on the website?
