From Gary Schwitzer's HealthNewsReview.org here's the worst of the worst of the year's health news releases. Highlights include a pitch for Dr. Paul's Piggy Paste, a cure-all for unsightly toenails; a dentist's press release on an epidemic of "Bulldog Face" and its health implications; various items touting "chlorogenic acids" or "ashwagandha," and of course, the story of how Oreo cookies may be as addictive as cocaine. More from Paul Raeburn.
