Biomedical scientist Dr. Andrea Love returns to WIRED to answer a new slate of the internet’s burning questions about pseudosciences, health fads, and false wellness claims.

Are GMOs and synthetic foods harmful? Why do the dangers of vaccines get blown out of proportion? Dr. Love answers these questions and many more on Pseudoscience Support Part Two!

    They don’t have evidence of support because they haven’t been RESEARCHED! The FDA and big pharma aren’t interested in natural remedies bc there’s NO MONEY IN IT!

    My understanding is that the debate regarding GMOs is less to do with its effect on one’s health and more to do with the effect on the environment (e.g., the pesticide Roundup). In other words, corn that has been genetically modified to tolerate Roundup allows growers to spray large anounts of it on fields, thus increasing environmental pollution. Could someone comment on this?

    You can trust Big Pharma or you can trust RFK. Take your pick. And RFK is about the Department of Health and Human Services secretary. Very soon, we will know who has been lying.

      We trust thousands on thousands of scientists who have never had a reason to lie to you…. or we trust 1 guy who has *PLENTY* of reason to lie to you?
      Your inability to trust peer-reviewed research, the research of tens of thousands of people who want nothing more than to help and educate others, says a lot about your need to follow, rather than learn.
      In what way is RFK an authority on public health? Is he a chemist? A biologist? A medical professional? All three of which dismiss his genuine crap as false?

    Hah, that sauna thing. Man, I feel like that’s exclusively an american brand of crazy people thing. Here in finland where we have more saunas than cars, we don’t even think of stuff like “detoxing” with sauna use. This particular psychosis is even worse with people who like to use infrared boxes (often mistakenly called saunas, which they are not) for their supposed healing benefits of infrared radiation, but then mix in a bit of EMF mumbojumbo and you got yourself an all-american white suburban mom.

    I got every immunization on offer for my twins, MMR too. Autism has no relationship with vaccines, it’s dangerous stupidity. Children are being left vulnerable to diseases so bad we spent time and money making a vaccine for them. All because one moron said it, and other morons repeated it.

    No Wired, this is *not* it. This arrogant, condescending tone of this lady is exactly the problem and why actual science regarding health and nutrition doesn’t reach lots of people nowadays.

    I agree with basically all of the points made, but god I hate her guts 😅 Don’t be arrogant and act like your smarter/better than people and you _will_ reach them.

    Her claims about probiotics are way out of date – in part because “probiotics” covers a huge range of bacterial species and strains. Yes, some are sold just because the bacteria in them are easy to grow. But others contain bacteria that have a large amount of research detailing their benefits and the mechanisms of their benefits. Like l. reuteri, some strains of which produce reuterin, and have been proven to kill off bad bacteria like c. difficile. One paper found that the tested strain of l. reuteri was as effective as antibiotic treatment with vacomycin for eliminating c. difficile. Or a yeast, S. boulardii, which has a lot of evidence for doing similar control of bad gut bacteria and benefiting people with diseases like IBS. And yes, these have been demonstrated to survive the acid and bile salts in the upper gastrointestinal tract and get to the large intestine alive. Dr. Love is many years behind in her reading if she thinks that no probiotics are supported by high quality research – many are. Search the NIH, NHS, Nature and other reputable websites for scientific papers about this research.
