Now that the Internet has provided a means to share information among billions of people, chances are there is a lot of bad information out there. From supplements to workout routines. It is hard to tell what will work and what will not. Bottom line is, you should always question claims and do your own research before trying anything. The Internet can be a great source of information if you find it from the right places. Here are 10 Red Flags to look out for with Internet claims:
1. Recommendations that promise a quick fix
2. Dire warnings of danger from a single product or regimen
3. Claims that sound too good to be true
4. Simplistic conclusions drawn from a single study
5. Recommendations based on a single study
6. Dramatic statements that are refuted by reputable scientific organizations
7. Lists of "good" and "bad" foods
8. Recommendations made to help sell a product
9. Recommendations based on studies published without peer review
10. Recommendations from studies that ignore differences among individuals or groups
Take a look at the latest diet and exercise fads. See if any of these flags come up. Always be skeptical of someone who claims they can help anyone in any situation. Don't let bad information and the Internet take advantage of you.
