|  Have you ever wondered why there is so much opposition to nutritional approaches for today’s major health issues? Is it really because the science is weak, or is it more to do with politics and money?Patrick Holford writes:
I was fascinated to read the free e-book, published this month on the internet, by Martin Walker entitled Cultural Dwarfs and Junk Journalism – Ben Goldacre, Quackbusting and Corporate Science. It explores the associations Guardian columnist Ben Goldacre, and other ‘quackbusters’ have with an organised anti-nutritional medicine agenda and organisations funded by the pharmaceutical industry. Those familiar with Ben Goldacre’s inability to expose the ‘bad science’ of drugs and antipathy towards nutritional medicine will not be surprised. The e-book can be downloaded for free from http://www.slingshotpublications.com/dwarfs.html and Walker hopes that many will place it on their web sites to be accessed and downloaded. |
