GI News – August 2017

We look at fake news about food and health in food for thought and how to counter it. Misinformation is sticky because our brains are actually bad at updating information even when we want to. In What’s New” Ted Kyle looks at what is milk and what is not; Prof Fred Brouns explains why avoiding FODMAPs may be helpful for some of us, but is not such a good idea for all of us; and Prof Clare Collins highlights five things to eat or avoid to prevent type 2 diabetes.
