What to believe?

Surprisingly, there is a thread of common sense and science that provides a pretty clear answer to most of the debates. We can thank the media for clouding the issues by reporting only part of the story, or by exaggerating minor risk and portraying them in the same weight as serious concerns.

We will attempt to present simple, clear recommendations, with explanation of the underlying reasons, and citations and links to the reputable sources themselves.

Where there is simply not enough information available to make a clear choice, we will point that out. And as much as people want to believe in the tooth fairy, we will not present fads and unsubstantiated claims as fact.
