What if many of the health, wellness, and performance products we spend money on are not delivering on their promises?In this episode, Martin is joined by physiologist, researcher and writer Dr Nick Tiller, author of The Health and Wellness Lie, for a critical look at the evidence behind some of the biggest claims in the wellness industry.From supplements and cold plunges to saunas, acupuncture, cupping, creatine and caffeine, Nick explains why a plausible-sounding mechanism, a scientific-looking claim or an elite athlete endorsement doesn't necessarily mean something works.The conversation also explores why we're so susceptible to wellness marketing, how our cognitive biases are exploited, and the difference between science communication and science commodification.Most importantly, Nick explains how to become a more critical consumer of health and performance information. Rather than simply telling you what works and what doesn't, he shows you how to recognise the mechanics behind the claims and make better decisions for yourself.About NickNick Tiller, Ph.D., is an exercise physiologist, researcher, and author whose work examines how science, misinformation, and marketing intersect in modern wellness culture. A Skeptical Inquirer columnist since 2021, and a writer for Psychology Today, he has written more than 150 general-audience articles and is an elected Fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry. His first book, The Skeptic's Guide to Sports Science was named one of Book Authority's "Best Sports Science Books of All Time." Chris van Tulleken describes his new book, The Health and Wellness Lie, as “a tour de force, debunking the myths and scams of the modern wellness industry.”Useful LinksNick’s website: https://www.nbtiller.com/ Nick’s book: https://linktr.ee/TheHealthandWellnessLie Chapters01:49 Whats The Harm02:59 Supplements And Risks05:29 Drugs Vs Supplements10:24 Acupuncture Reality Check13:03 Why People Believe14:47 Cupping And Media Hype18:31 When Placebos Kill20:40 Science Communication Void23:09 Influencers And Biases28:40 Shiny Objects And Saunas32:07 Sauna Study Misread34:03 Sauna Versus Exercise35:18 Cold Plunge Recovery Myth38:04 Wellness Marketing Playbook41:54 Back To The Basics47:07 Creatine Hype And Bias51:02 Caffeine Claims And Timing54:24 Critical Thinking Framework57:30 Closing Thoughts And PlugsAbout the PodcastFor more expert-led conversations delivering evidence-based strategies to help you perform, recover, and adapt in high-pressure environments, check out our website https://www.ophp.co.uk/Hosted by Human Performance specialist, researcher and educator Dr Martin I.
