Are nutrition articles in popular magazines unbiased?

Do you trust the nutrition and food articles found in popular nutrition and healthy living magazines you've read in the past? It's pretty well-known that many larger publications have to twist editorials and features to please advertisers, many of whom appear to make healthy food items -- but really don't in many cases.

In fact, it's increasingly hard to find unbiased opinion (backed up by verifiable facts) these days on anything without the influence of "paying" advertisers to get in the way. Discriminating minds can spot this pretty easily when paying attention. But that leaves the question -- what can you believe?

The views of vested interests appear so frequently that it's hard to find unbiased suggestions for the best nutrition your body deserves while not breaking the bank. Read this and then you may have some questions to ask and answer yourself the next time you read that article next to a big corporate advertisement in that popular health magazine.
