False advertising is the use of misleading, false, or unproven information to advertise products to consumers or advertising that does not disclose its source. One form of false advertising is to claim that a product has a health benefit or contains vitamins or minerals that it in fact does not. Many governments use regulations to control false advertising. A false advertisement can further be classified as deceptive if the advertiser deliberately misleads the consumer, as opposed to making an honest mistake. False advertising.


 * 1) Everything in the article seems pretty straight forward.
 * 2) The article remains neutral the whole time as far as I can tell.
 * 3) The Citations work but the main reason I decided to use this paragraph to edit was due to the last sentence stating something but not showing any citation of the source.
 * 4) I also chose to search this article because it goes with some of the topics we have been discussing in class.

For part 2 I added a citation to the end of the last sentence in the paragraph.

4/25/18 Intermittent fasting.

Some things I want to include in the article are studies that Intermittent fasting can increase mood and energy throughout the day. I would also like that add more about average people or even being who weight train and the effects of Intermittent fasting.

I think this article is missing some of the things I have started above. It talks generally about Intermittent Fasting and how it is great for weight loss but it doesn't go into much more than that. I want to research other aspects and benefits of IM.

During intermittent fasting your insulin levels will drop. Since you are not receiving any new source of energy, your body will look for other sources of food to use. This causes your body to use its stored energy,or Glycogen, followed by your stored fat after. Because fat gets used for energy at a much slower and steadier pace, many people who are fasting feel more energetic during the day, compared to the spikes and drops of energy usually felt with traditional eating. Intermittent fasting has also been shown to increase one's Human Growth Hormone.

Some studies have shown that another benefit to intermittent fasting is an increased immune system. This happens due to the tiny amounts of stress that you place on your cells while you are in your fast. Much like working out, the cells adapt to the minor stress and become strong and healthier. Brain diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease may also be affected by Intermittent fasting. During a fast your body protects the neurons from outside stresses that happen naturally with things like age.
