There are so many conflicting reports on nutrition. It is really hard to keep track of it all. One minute this is good for you. The next minute it is bad depending on which report from which organization is funding the research. Heck, just the other day, I read someone that there was a research that suggested that women who have breast implants enjoy sex more. Of course, the research was funded by a group behind breast augmentation.

Yeah, I think the main thing is to not over eat, and exercise when possible. Unless you have a specific health problem (e.g. diabetes), you should worry so much about exactly what it is you're eating (at least, as it relates to your health; environmental and social concerns are a different beast).

I remember researching whether or not we should "co-sleep" with out baby when she was born. All the studies said no because it was dangerous. Turns out they were all funded by crib manufacturers. It's only dangerous when the parents are obese or alcohol or drug induced. Such is life...
