Prevention Information on the
Internet
During the past five years or so, the Internet has become the library of
choice for many. This is especially true for regular publications, and this
includes The Prevention News newsletter. The list below includes a
sampling of Internet addresses for sources of information about genetics,
nutrition, toxins, injury, and many other potential prevention subjects. In
addition, the federal government and a number of states post materials related
to the laws and legislative initiatives.
