Ep. 10: Whining about Wine

Millions of consumers believe that small, daily amounts of alcohol are heathy. That's not an unpleasant notion, but it's way too simple. Wine, for example, includes healthy ingredients like antioxidants. But those healthy ingredients are just as readily available in berries and other foods, and the health benefits of antioxidants have been oversold, anyway.

Ep. 8: The Dope on Flu Vaccinations

Every year, millions of Americans line up and pay up for flu vaccinations. But even the manufacturers of vaccines concede that the flu virus constantly mutates, and it's a crapshoot as to whether or not any given vaccine will be effective.

Ep. 6: The Hilarity of USDA Guidelines

Since 1990, the USDA has been required by law to issue recommended dietary guidelines for Americans. But these guidelines are based on countless misconceptions about cholesterol, grains, fad foods like kale, and more. More importantly, there's a complete absence of personalization.

Ep. 5: Fad Diets, and Why They're as Useful as Bell Bottoms and Pet Rocks

Atkins, Pritikin, Beverly Hills, Blood Type, Mediterranean, Paleo, South Beach, Macrobiotic, South Beach, Five-Bite, and Werewolf. Yes, werewolf.
