Degrees tell you what someone studied. Professions tell you what they do for a living. And many wellness influencers are just full-time grifters! #Wellness #Influencers

ChatGPT Health launched recently to relatively little fanfare. But what is this new platform, and how does it change the way we use AI chatbots for health advice? Read the article @PsychToday ➡️psychologytoday.com/us/blog/… #Health #AI #ChatGPT

There are just THREE human studies on BPC-157, totaling just 30 participants. None was randomized or controlled. So why are people buying it? I answer that question and more in this month's column for @SkeptInquirer #health #science #peptides skepticalinquirer.org/exclus…

It can take me hours to fully digest and understand a journal article. Remember this the next time you're online and someone posts about a new study every day, sometimes two or three times a day. #Science #Pseudoscience #Misinformation

Do you know the difference between a science communicator and a science commodifier? In this month's @SkeptInquirer column, I explore how the latter cherry-pick studies, misappropriate data, and produce conclusions that dovetail with branded products. linktr.ee/NBTiller

A battered painting sells for $1,000, years of careful restoration follow, and then: $80M → $127.5M → $450M. @NBTiller argues science now has a similar lifecycle. Researchers do the actual work, release it, and watch someone else turn it into a product: skepticalinquirer.org/exclus…

Dear friends, if you have missed this, our invited Editorial for the BMJ is flaming hot now. Thousands of reads and nearly 19 (accepted ones) detailed Rapid Responses, mostly from Indian Ayurvedic industry and practitioners; and from developing/under-developed countries where traditional medicine is "belief" without "evidence" - because when there is no data, "faith" works for those who are not scientifically temperamental. Please read our article. It is creating lot of buzz globally and has struck where it has to: bmj.com/content/393/bmj-2026… + @CaulfieldTim @Cath77777 Please go through the Rapid Responses here bmj.com/content/393/bmj-2026… Some are logical responses and concerns, and we will be sending in author replies to those, while most others are wholly AI generated beautiful chaos. While others, really made us chuckle (because there seems to be a lot of whataboutery and logical fallacies that are unmissable) because the existential crisis of the alternative medicine industry and practitioners and stakeholders was palpable. You can also reply to those responses or read our paper and send us your thoughts/ opinions here: bmj.com/content/393/bmj-2026… Please share our work. WHO has (without consensus) renamed Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) to Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine (TCIM) to falsely legitimize and promote propaganda to brainwash people into thinking that alternative medicine has a place in healthcare (in the form of integrative medicine) - but it does not. CAM is still the right term, because TCIM is still CAM.
