Eating Beyond the Headlines: Sorting Evidence from Emotion Alarming food and nutrition headlines not only confuse consumers but may also result in the exclusion of nutrient-rich foods from the diet.

This can be challenging especially for topics that evoke strongly held and emotional beliefs that often defy scientific reality.
