Sharing.(Letter to the Editor)
BN stands out because it includes stories that contradict conventional "natural health" wisdom.
As an example, I point to "[H.sub.2]O Myth All Wet" (December 2002). We've heard about the eight glasses of water myth for decades, and yet not one study has ever backed up the claim. Your article explodes the myth and even suggests its origin.
In the same issue, one finds "Setting the Record Straight: Fresh vs. Frozen," explaining why frozen foods can be just as healthy as fresh. And a page further on, readers encounter "Vitamins for Energy," which reveals this frequent claim for what it is: a conscious lie. Vitamins don't provide energy.
And on page 39, "Low-Calorie Longevity" states a simple medical truth that has been lost amid numerous, fuzzy, anti-aging product claims: "... calorie restriction is the only strategy that has been scientifically proven to extend the maximum life span." Doctors know this, but the public keeps getting duped.
