Can You Trust Health Info Online? Here’s How to Know What’s True (and What’s Not)

With millions of health tips floating around the internet, how do you tell the difference between helpful advice and harmful misinformation?

In today’s episode, we dive deep into the growing problem of false medical information online. From viral TikToks to clickbait headlines, the web is full of health claims — but not all of them are based on facts.

We walk through the pros and cons of looking up symptoms and treatments online, and introduce you to the CRAAP test — a simple tool to help you evaluate the Currency, Relevance, Accuracy, Authority, and Purpose of what you’re reading.

We also discuss the half-life of medical knowledge — the surprising reason why even some older medical advice might no longer be valid.

You’ll learn:

Why online health information spreads so quickly (and dangerously)

How to spot red flags in health articles and social media posts

What the CRAAP test is and how to use it to verify facts

The risks of relying on outdated medical studies

When and how to bring online info to your doctor

In a world of information overload, this episode gives you a doctor-approved filter for separating science from speculation.
