Source: What Doctors Don't Tell You, October 2012, p3 (bottom left, blue panel)This seems like a perfectly sensible liability statement / disclaimer. It just made me chuckle given their seeming mistrust of the medical profession.
I wonder why they've hidden the statement at the bottom left of a panel in which they've put all the editorial information... rather than placing this somewhere more prominent. Probably every magazine does this but since they're keen to give people good health advice you think they'd want readers to see that warning.

Comment policy: I enthusiastically welcome corrections and I entertain polite disagreement ;) Because of the nature of this blog it attracts a LOT - 5 a day at the moment - of spam comments (I write about spam practices,misleading marketing and unevidenced quackery) and so I'm more likely to post a pasted version of your comment, removing any hyperlinks.
Comments written in ALL CAPS LOCK will be deleted and I won't publish any pro-homeopathy comments, that ship has sailed I'm afraid (it's nonsense).
