Nutrition Information

Do not make major changes in your eating habits because of what you read in a magazine article without researching it further. Nutrition facts can be validated by consulting textbooks available at libraries and bookstores. Unlike the information in some best-selling nutrition books, the information in nutrition textbooks are scientifically sound. You can also research online, however do not just enter your topic into a search engine. Nutrition misinformation abounds on the Internet. Instead, go to a web site that you respect and search that site's collection of articles and links. A good one to check out is http://www.usda.gov/.
