Nutrition Action Health Letter -
Highly Recommended
Remember those exposes on
the content of a Cinnabon bun? Or a serving of Kung Pao
chicken? This is the newsletter that broke those stories.
Published by the Center for Science in the Public
Interest, this small newsletter (10-20 pages) is packed
with info and *no ads*. Each issue has a cover story (for
example Cancer, Does Fat make you Fat?, Nutrition and
Aging, Which Vitamins are right for you, etc.) which gives
high level statistics and attempts to divide myth from
fact based on interviews with respected experts. Most
articles are accompanied by a table of comparisons with
nutritional information with their recommendations marked
as "Best Bites" (recent reviews include ice cream, peanut
butter, vegetables, etc.). There is a regular column with
recipes and the back page features two new products, one
healthy, one not. Well written unbiased timely reporting
on nutrition. What more can you ask for?
