Consumer Reports onHealth is a monthly, 12-page health newsletter published in print and in electronic form by Consumers Union. The newsletter offers independent, unbiased news, information, and recommendations about staying healthy, nutrition, fitness, drugs and supplements, and common adult medical conditions. The print newsletter debuted in September 1989. In January 2004, the Web site www.ConsumerReportsonHealth.org was launched; it contains the electronic version of the newsletter and a searchable archive of the last four years of newsletter stories. Consumers Union is an independent, nonprofit testing and information organization. Since 1936, CU’s mission has been to test
products, inform the public, and protect consumers. We are a comprehensive source for unbiased advice about products and services,
personal finance, health and nutrition, and other consumer concerns. Our income is derived solely from the sale of Consumer Reports onHealth (in print and online), other publications and services, and from nonrestrictive, noncommercial contributions, grants, and
fees. Consumers Union is governed by a board of 18 directors, who are elected by CU members and meet three times a year. CU's
President, James Guest, oversees a staff of more than 450 people. President Senior Vice President, Information Products
