A correction has been made to this post based upon the content pointed out by an independent Facebook fact-check.

Fact check: A graphic circulating on Facebook claims fruit and vegetables can treat various health conditions.

The conditions range from the less serious – cold, headache and hangover – to the much more serious and potentially life-threatening: diabetes, high blood pressure and asthma.

Under “diabetes”, for example, it lists “carrot, spinach, celery”. For high blood pressure it gives “beet, apple, celery, cucumber, ginger”. And its treatment for asthma is “carrot, spinach, apple, garlic, lemon”.

But the graphic is at best misleading, and provides no useful advice on treating these conditions.

The graphic gives no evidence for its claims and does not cite any sources. This is already a reason not to follow its advice. As we have written before, if a health claim sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

And it simply gives a short list of various fruits and vegetables under each condition. It does not say what these will do for the condition – cure it, treat it or prevent it. This important context is missing.
