Resumo: Today we live in a globalized world, with no boundaries, and where we can be updated of any information by the minute. This globalization phenomenon has a lot of advantages as well as disadvantages. It is wonderful to know the news by the minute, however the easiness and swift-ness real news spreads, same goes to the false news. Tools, such as search engines like Google, Bing, Yandex, etc. Social Media (i.e. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) or Blogs, are turning the information sharing easier, but uncontrolled. Online it is very difficult to assess the reliability of news or information. On these lines, at present, a hotly debated and widely spread topic deals with diets and a healthier life. I mean to say, people are adopting new diets and consuming products that someone online declares they are healthier and offer added benefits. Therefore, this study seeks to understand the reliability of these new diet trends, who are these people that shared the information, and the impact of it on the society.

É possível estar constantemente informado sem qualquer tipo de barreiras. Este fenómeno a que chamamos de globalização vem trazer à soci-edade um conjunto de vantagens assim como de desvantagens, o facto de podermos saber o que se passa no mundo ao minuto é um excelente avanço, contudo com toda a facilidade de partilha de informação é difícil apurar a veracidade da mesma. Ferramentas como motores de busca (Google, Bing. Yandex, etc) Redes Sociais (ex. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), ou Blogues, têm facilitado a partilha de informação, contudo esta mesma partilha não tem qualquer controlo. Como consequência, actualmente é difícil apurar a veracidade da informação disponível online. Seguindo esta linha de pensamento, um tópico actual bastante debatido e partilhado diz respeito a dietas e estilo de vida saudável. As pessoas estão a começar a adoptar novas dietas e produtos que "alguém" online afirma ser mais saudável e ter um conjunto de benefícios para a saúde. Com base nesta tendência, esta dissertação procura compreender a veracidade e autenticidade destas novas dietas, quem são estas pessoas que estão a partilha-las, e o impacto que esta nova tendência pode ter na sociedade.2020-10-30T00:00:00Z2019-10-30T00:00:00Z2019-10-302019-09info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/19036TID:202312380engVasconcelos, Catarina Mafalda Barreiro Pestana deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:26:15Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/19036Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:11:45.181660Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
