The New Age Y2K Modern World is about the " Information Age ", remember the ' industrial revolution ' well today it is about information to gain access to improved market share. Gone are the days when sellers could simply come up with a new product, today there are truly very few new products. This means people must be subjected to relentless advertising. The theory is if you overwhelm people with experts and scientific opinion you will increase your market-share.
The easiest way to avoid confusion is if the person promoting the information has any professional training or credentials after their name then you are best to avoid their spiel. If the magazine you are reading has shiny pages or advertising then the information contained in it is most likely dubious at best.
Simply skim the magazines and find out the premise and idea behind the theory and then use a modern search engine to go and try and find the truth. Most magazine authors and media webcasters or newsreaders just take the official media release and reword it and publish the resultant propaganda . . .
After all if anyone ever questions the validity of the assertions and statements they will reflect poorly on the scientific author's credibility and not on the journalist who was just to sloppy and lazy to try and do their job ethically ! ! !
What about individuals who's passion it is to heal others and do so behind the title as a Doctor or Nutritionist? Couldnt you argue they are doing the research for you?
Simply all they would have to do is prove they have evaluated modern professional practice and then explained the other research of alternatives that they can ethically share with their clients.
I include my previous blog post that says simply at least 49% or more of modern scientific evidence is misleading trash.
Yes I do say that and so does a lot of genuine authoritative websites . . .
But as I said anyone can publish whatever they like now-a-days so maybe all these websites are wrong as well.
Personally I like what the Law Courts ruling, no expert is allowed to testify to any expert opinion until that expert opinion has been accept by the vast majority of the scientific community ! ! !
To my mind if a scientist wants to be able to publish their findings, then they need similar scientific finding independently found in at least three overseas countries ...
