Nutrition Red Flags

Fresh Start Monday NewsletterChef Judy

There are red flags on the agenda today Usman!

Did you know that the FTC has put together a guide to the most common dubious health claims? It's called "Gut Check: A Reference Guide for Media on Spotting False Weight Control Claims" and Lynn Grieger, RDN, CDE, CPT, CWC, has put together a guide to using it.

In the post Weight Control Marketing Terms that Raise Red Flags, Lynn Grieger outlines each of the 7 health claims that were deconstructed by the FTC. She also explains why these claims are questionable and why people still desperately want to believe them. Check out the post, and keep your eyes peeled for the handout that comes with it.

Have a marvelous weekend!

Best,
