50. Mental Health Facts or Clickbait? How What You Read Has the Potential to Change Your Life (with special guests Health Hackd)

In this episode, Dr. Nicole Cain, ND MA has a great discussion with the guys behind Health Hackd (Andy and Aaron).

Andy and Aaron are two brothers who started their careers as Certified Public Accountants for a global accounting firm before discovering their passion for health. After personally experiencing the shortfalls of the current health care system and discovering the power of preventative care, Andy and Aaron decided to use their investigative expertise as financial statement auditors to apply those skills to health news.

Seeing the massive amount of health information out there (with social media, news headlines, etc.) with seemingly contradicting claims, they decided to start Health Hackd, a health news outlet and podcast that cuts straight to the facts with no clickbait or fads, in a way that is easy to understand and entertaining.

Here are tidbits of what we get into within the episode:

• How Andy’s wife being diagnosed with MS opened his eyes to integrative health
• Aaron’s personal health journey with digestive issues and overall quality of life 
• The importance of doing your own research in your health journey
• Key factors to look at in research studies 
• Taking note of potential bias in the studies, specifically who funded it?
• The impact of the habits of those around you
• How to filter news headlines properly
• Important questions to ask yourself when reading the news, “is it applicable and relevant for me?”
• VCR when consuming news: validate, complete, relevant
