Elijaeger,
Sure, I am currently in the process of becoming a Certified Fitness Nutritionist, through a course offered by NESTA (The National Endurance and Sports Training Association).
One of the best sources for easy-to-read science of low-carbing books, however, is my favorite book: "Living the Low-Carb Life", by Jonny Bowden. I have purchased this book so many times, and given it away so many times, that I don't a copy for my self any more. I need to pick up another copy!
I have read Protein Power as well as Barry Sears: Enter-the-Zone. I find that a lot of physical-types, like Sears and Eades, tend to follow, what I call, the old school methods. I enjoyed reading Atkins in the 90's and really enjoy a lot of the new school of thought on low-carbing, even through it tends to fly in the face of a lot of traditionally held beliefs about nutrition.
It may be some of the rebel in me that just likes to challenge the established ways of thinking with new creativity. I read an article in Runners World lately and the writer wrote a passage that I really liked. He titles one of his sections with: "Every Five Years: Good Advice Becomes Bad Advice!".
Our thinking is just always growing in new ways.
J.
