Accurate Internet Health Advice

Accurate advice

A recent poll of 1,000 adults conducted by Opinion Research Corp. found that more than 2/3 of respondents said they obtained information from the Internet; 82% specifically seek health and nutrition advice. Some websites may seem like reliable health resources but really aren’t. When looking online for health and nutrition information, it’s best to rely on health professionals and well-known medical organizations.

    Respected and reputable websites include: Web M.D. (webmd.com), the American Dietetic Association (eatright.org), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (fda.gov), and the Center for Science in the Public Interest, (cspinet.org). The CSPI also publishes the terrific Nutrition Action Newsletter to which you can subscribe online for just $10 per year. H&O
