What's Junk Science?

Beware of the junk science! This is anything that promises a quick cure, a miracle, a TRANSFORMATION. What are some ways you can know what's true and what's not?

First of all if they tell you that you must avoid entire food groups

Or they also say something like "don't eat xxxx food, here's why...."

Also, be wary of diets that promise losing a lot of weight in a very short time- that is very unsafe and studies show most people gain it right back when weight is lost rapidly.

Usually these companies are making money off you!

Also, best to avoid any pop up ads that have to do with dieting or avoiding food-once you enter that rabbit hole and click on it it's hard to get out- plus you will have to see all the reasons they want to convince you to buy their product.

In addition, when reviewing who is telling you about different nutritional cures- check out their credentials- are they an RDN (registered dietitian nutritionist) or an MS RDN (Master's degree and registered dietitian nutritionist) or are they an influencer with no background, no formal education in nutrition.

Go ahead start to be a detective - only trust credible sources!
