We live in an age of information, but that information also competes with the misinformation spread by those with lots of money. Some such misinformation -- such as US News suggestion that Slim Fast and processed meal bars are better diet foods than fresh, whole foods in the paleo diet -- can ostensibly be easily ignored. But of course, not everyone is armed with the right information. Some people will undoubtedly believe what US News and other outlets suggest. But all of us have limits to our knowledge and so can fall prey to such bad reporting if were not careful. This kind of thing should serve as a reminder to approach any health and nutrition news with a healthy dose of skepticism.
