I see this differently. I bolded the sentence because I think it's important information. I only took one class of nutrition in college, but this was stressed very heavily, there is not much difference between a C level diet and an A level diet that can be shown scientifically. This doesn't mean there is no difference, but we don't have the equipment to measure the difference. There are some nutritionist who believe that the less processed our diets are the better for us. There is no proof of this, but many nutritionists are started to lean that way. There is also no proof that organic fruits and vegetables are better for us either, we don't have the equipment to show the differences. We do now know that organic gardening is better for the earth, but nothing shows it's healthier for us, yet. What this tells me is we don't have enough information. The website is neither gospel or worthless, it can add to your overall understanding of nutrition if you read enough. By the way, figuring out if you get value for your money, is far from meaningless to me.
