Cure-all or quack remedy?

I get a lot of advice from people who don’t have Crohn’s disease or Wegener’s about what I should be supplementally taking and/or eating — and last time I checked, none of them were nutritionists or doctors (she says, cynically). I know, I know...everyone is just trying to help.

I’m all about the science though — and perhaps that is why I absolutely love this infographic (left) from Information is Beautiful around the scientific evidence for many health supplements (thanks for pointing it out Lindsey!).

View the interactive map here. And throw out that giant bottle of resveratrol already.

I love this tool! And I distinctly remember the many bottles of resveratrol that lived in the pantry of our old apartment.
