Are Health Influencers Misleading You? Real Facts You Should Know | Existential Threads

Описание: Welcome to an eye-opening discussion that challenges the prevailing narratives pushed by health influencers. In this video, we dive deep into why much of the common health advice you hear might be more harmful than helpful.

We start by examining the shaky scientific foundations of popular health trends like intermittent fasting and calorie restriction, often based on inadequate rodent studies rather than solid human-based research. The nuances of these studies show that while some interventions might seem promising, they can have unintended consequences on your physical and mental health.

Thanks to Oren Milman for the scientific input.

Key Highlights:

Unpacking the truth behind calorie restriction and its varied effects on lifespan.
The complexities of intermittent fasting and its potential risks. How to critically evaluate health advice from influencers and distinguish between hype and evidence-based recommendations.
