I like Joel Fuhrman's books. Not sure if the science included is as deep as you (a Hacker News reader) would want or not, but I found it adequate. I'm not trying to become a nutritional scientist myself, just understand things better.

Agreed. Eat to Live is the single best nutrition book I’ve read. He also continues [1] to be an active medical researcher and clinician. His diet is challenging to strictly follow but the results are very clear.
