The news media are hungry for new findings,

and reporters often latch onto ideas

from the scientific laboratories

before they have been fully tested.

To tell the truth,

sometimes scientists get excited

about their findings, too,

and leak them to the press

before they have been through

a thorough review

by the scientists’ peers.

Also, a reporter

who lacks a strong understanding of science

may misunderstand or misreport

complex scientific principles.

As a result,

the public is often exposed to

late-breaking nutrition news stories

before the findings are fully confirmed.

Then, when the hypothesis being tested

fails to hold up to a later challenge,

consumers feel betrayed

by what is simply the normal course of science

at work.
