But despite what the wellness industry told you, you don't need another cleanse, detox, or supplement--you need a crash course in separating hype from health.In It's Probably Nothing you'll find a health journalist's tools and tips to: Fine-tune your B.S. detector and spot the wellness industry's sneaky tricks; get answers to your health questions without spiraling down search holes; manage health stress and learn to listen to your body (just enough); decode the latest overhyped health headlines; find compassionate, evidence-based care that works for you; and so much more.
