In this episode, Nikki chats with Travis Pollen, PhD Health & Rehabilitation Sciences about how to critically assess scientific and research claims in the social media and online space.

They discuss:

The limitations of research and how it doesn't always hold up when applied to real life
The problem is cherry picking or only selecting a single study to site on why you are doing something rather than considering the larger body of evidence and how this can lead to misleading claims
Why you can't believe everything you hear in the media or on Instagram, even when it comes from an authority
Why most health and fitness advice is really boring and if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is
