Thankfully there wasn’t a gummy bear add, but there was tons of ads for those supposedly healthy protein bars that are packed with sugar alcohol and other toxic things. The saddest thing for me was that there are fitness professionals that are very respected in the field selling their names to diet pills, while knowing this stuff doesn’t work. They can make money in other places, but they are selling them selves out for diet pills.

Of course, I also think they are a pretty lame excuse for candy, but that’a another topic for a different time. There has been a lot of turmoil in the magazine industry over the past few years, with the number of titles sold shrinking and advertising teams willing to sell their pages to anyone who will pay the price. I’ve always felt that advertising and editorial should remain separate, but it seems like standards are dropping with lame advice. Was there a big ad for gummy bears opposite the article?
