So hard to believe what we read, hear or see lately.
Be especially wary of “scary headlines”. Fear sells. We have seen this with hormone therapies for years.
Now with intermittent fasting (IF).
See these headlines? Intermittent fasting increases cardiovascular mortality by 91%.
The study being referred to was presented at the American Heart Association (AHA) Epidemiology and Prevention/Lifestyle conference in Chicago.
The American Heart Association and news media jumped on this. Promoted this fear.
But many have now ripped these data points to shreds.
But we often hear the first fearful headlines, not the followup criticisms.
This happened to even medical school professors where hormones are involved.
