Yes, we ARE bombarded.

     But necessarily by cancer causing chemicals, as this story today suggests.
     We're bombarded by conflicting reports about what's dangerous and what isn't.

• Coffee is bad for you, no, wait coffee is good!
• Drink Green Tea...but wait, not that much! 
• Take vitamins, but not this kind. On second thought, don't take 'em at all.

The problem for most of us is that there a billion research reports issued every year, most of them meaningless as far as making decisions about your health. We do a disservice in reporting every new research nuance without putting it all into some kind of perspective.

[UPDATE: The NY Times reports The American Cancer Society is unhappy with yesterday's report on chemicals (which is linked a the top of this post).
