Dairy Industry Sued for Weight Loss Ads

I just posted how email spamming people with health tips can cause people to live healthier. Apparently the dairy industry wants you to have your spam with a tall glass of milk, but some people are not buying it:

A health advocacy group filed suit Tuesday against the dairy industry, accusing it of false advertising in its $200 million campaign that ties dairy product consumption to weight loss.

Later they state:

The lawsuit charges that the dairy industry based its marketing overwhelmingly on research by one scientist whose work it has supported.

You can usually tell more about research by who paid for it than what it’s results are.

You can skew numbers, embelish facts, only test certain anomalies, and leave out whatever facts do not support your position. It is not honest work, but then again most people bathing in money are usually not all that honest.

It is amazing that - like cows or a gallon of milk - scientists can be bought. Lets hope their research does a body good
