Health claim

There is a lot of health information out there and everyone has a spin on it. Some of it is valid, important, well researched information. Other information is less accurate in their claims. It is an important skill to be able to decipher between what is a fictitious claim and what is accurate. For this assignment please chose a False Health claim (Something that people say is true but is not supported by research). Find a MINIMUM of 5 UNIQUE WEBSITES that support the false claim. Then cite a MINIMUM of 5 UNIQUE relevant research articles (no websites) to show why the claim is false. (use Google scholar, or NorQuest Library database)
FYI : YOU MUST PARAPHRASE THE SOURCES IN YOUR OWN WORDS. COPY-PASTE-ing SOMEONE ELSES WORK IS GROUNDS FOR PLAGIRISM.

1. Describe the health claim and why the claim might be considered true by some people using websites, social media or unverified posts. Out of 10 (Minimum 5 UNIQUE references here)
2. Using research from reliable sources (NOT WIKAPEDIA; think some combination of:

open the sources you have gathered and start looking for evidence to support your topic sentence.
1. Summary: Go through your sources. Pick out a paragraph that could serve as support for your topic sentence and summarize the paragraph in a single sentence. Post the original paragraph and your summary here.
2. Paraphrase: . Find a paragraph that could serve as support for your topic sentence, either from the same source or a different one, and paraphrase the paragraph using roughly the same number of words. Post the original paragraph and your paraphrase here Below is an example of an acceptable paraphrase that avoids plagiarism.
ORIGINAL SOURCE
“There are two ways to become wealthy: to create wealth or to take wealth away from others. The former adds to society. The latter typically subtracts from it, for in the process of taking it away, wealth gets destroyed. A monopolist who overcharges for his product takes away money from those he is overcharging and at the same time destroys value. To get his monopoly price, he has to restrict production.
ACCEPTABLE PARAPHRASE
Creating wealth adds to society, whereas taking away the wealth from others detracts from it and destroys wealth in the process. For example, a monopolist overcharging for a product takes money away from the customer, but also destroys value because in order to get the monopoly price, production has to be restricted (Stiglitz 21).
3. Quotation: Pick out a quote that could serve as evidence for your topic sentence. Write a signal phrase around the quote, modeled on one of the following examples.
I. Martin Lindstrom, a marketer by profession, says in Brandwashed: Tricks Companies Use to Manipulate Our Minds and Persuade Us that…”….”
II. “The vast resort offered the combined features of a medical boardinghouse, hospital, religious retreat, country club, tent Chautauqua, spa,” writes Gerald Carson in his 1957 book Cornflake Crusade, “all carried forward in an atmosphere of moral reform and ascetism.”
III. Before the cereal boom, breakfast was “porridge or mush, graham gems, parsnips, and tomato toast.”

How to Write a Book Review*
Technical Requirements:
Reviews should be a minimum of two pages long (meaning it must spill onto a third page for full credit), typed in Times New Roman 12 pt font, double-spaced, with 0 pt spacing Before and After, one-inch margins, with no errors in punctuation, grammar or spelling. At the top of the review, write the name of the author, the title of the book, the place of publication, the name of the publisher, the year of publication and the number of pages. An example follows:

Meyer, Milton W. Asia A Concise History. Latham, Md.: Rowman & Littlefield, 1997. Pp. 603.
Suggestions as to the Contents of the Review:
There are generally two parts to any review: (1) summary of the book and (2) critical comments. A skilled reviewer usually weaves these together. The reviewer must generally answer four basic questions to succeed:
First, what is the book about?
This query, of course, leads to others. Does the book have a central theme or themes? Does it argue a thesis? What is the author’s purpose? Is it stated explicitly in a preface or conclusion, or is it implied within the body of the text? Did the author accomplish his/her purpose? Did the author do more than accomplish the purpose? At some point in the review, attempt to summarize both the theme and thesis in a single sentence.
Second, is the book reliable?
The critical reviewer is reluctant to accept the printed word without a frank appraisal. He/she must ask: Who is the author? Has he/she written any other books? If so, what was the opinion of the critics? Is the author a professional writer, journalist, college professor, or in some other occupation? Where did the author get his/her information-from travel, from careful research through manuscripts and documents, from interviews, or from secondary authorities (what others have written about the subject)? How does the author indicate where he/she obtained his/her material-bibliography, footnotes, preface, or by a casual reference within the text? Once the reviewer has determined where the author obtained the information, the reviewer must determine whether these sources are reliable. Why or why not? Does the author use his/her evidence and sources with care and discrimination? Does the author read into the evidence interpretations which do not fit the findings? Does he/she decorate the narrative to pervert the facts? Is the author swayed by a definite bias or prejudice? Is he/she fair to all sides? Are the author’s facts and interpretations valid ones? Do you believe the thesis is convincing? Has the author persuaded you to accept his/her point of view? The skillful reviewer, being fair to the author, carefully explains the basis for all criticism.
Third, is the material presented well?
Is the book readable and well organized? Is this material introduced in simple terms, or does the author plunge the reader into complexities which presuppose a general knowledge of the subject on the part of the reader? Does the book convey the excitement of the original historical event? Or is the writing lifeless?
Fourth, what, if anything, did the book contribute to your knowledge and understanding of history?
Would you recommend the book to another student in this course? Why or why not?
