What was the last thing you read in the news about which foods you should avoid because they cause cancer? Or what foods you should eat to cure your cancer? And, which of those things were actually true? There are so many exaggerated nutritional and health claims floating around the media space. Some of them can be pretty scary.“I don’t want to eat something that might cause cancer.” Other times they can make huge promises or give false hope. “Wait, if I drink this then my skin will be clear forever and ever?” So, how do you separate fact from fiction?
