I subscribed to Men's Health for over 5 years. I read every issue and many times headlines would contradict one another. Many of the headlines were based on studies from what felt like arbitrary Universities or Research Centers. It's pretty much the equivalent of click bait. When you read past the big letters and highlighted sections you see clearly that the studies aren't scientific at all. Their sample size is always too small or they always leave out important human factors or they leave out the middle man of cause and effect. When it comes to diet and nutrition I most definitely see a lot of bad science out there.
- JabavuAdams 12y agoMen's Health is not a scientific publication. The point is that nutrition is a multi-billion dollar industry. That corrupts the science. Hey I want to make a new product that X segment will like. Can you guys go find some science that backs this up?
- b_emery 12y agoFor years I subscribed to the Berkeley Wellness letter (http://www.berkeleywellness.com/ http://www.berkeleywellness.com/). While not a scientific publication, it is written by MD's for the public, with the goal of taking the latest results and putting them in the context of every thing else that had already been done. It's like a low pass filter for health related science. Highly recommended.
