The Fear Factor After Breast Cancer - How Headlines Leave Us More Confused and Afraid of Food
Listen now
Description
In this episode, we’ll dive into an issue that's been causing quite a bit of unnecessary worry among us, especially as breast cancer survivors. We're constantly bombarded with alarming headlines claiming that another everyday habit or food is suddenly a health hazard. I'm here to break down those fears and offer some clarity. While it's crucial to stay informed, it's equally important to approach these headlines with a healthy dose of skepticism. I share my own frustration over how some studies are often exaggerated by the media, creating fear around lifestyle practices that are, more often than not, perfectly healthy. I delve into how to recognize these misleading headlines and the importance of looking beyond them. I stress the need to consider the actual data behind these studies – which, as it turns out, often isn't as conclusive as it's presented. I encourage my breast cancer community not to let these fear-mongering tactics detract from our health and wellness journey. Together, we can navigate through the sea of information with wisdom and grace, keeping our focus on thriving, not just surviving.   Referred to in this episode: Metabolic Health Coaching 5 brilliant graphs that teach correlation vs. causality Intermittent fasting linked to 91% increase in risk of death from heart disease, study says The intermittent fasting trend may pose risks to your heart Association of 8-Hour Time-Restricted Eating with All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality Data Books: The Obesity Code Fast Like a Girl Delay Don’t Deny Follow me on Social Media:  Facebook Instagram Pinterest YouTube
