Your comment is valuable, but at least Nutrionfacts seems to present one side of the argument factually.

There are operations like 'Brand Power'[1] which masquerades like consumer fact checking service but in fact they just 3rd party advertisers for brands.

When I first saw their Ads in India, I thought it's disingenuous and then I learnt that they do the same even in developed countries.

While you accurately describe Brand Power, it really has nothing to do with the topic at hand —- the biases surrounding nutritional research.
You're correct, I shared Brand Power because of their representation of what they claim as 'Nutritional Facts'[1].
