Episode Synopsis

It’s not just misinformation. It’s misinfluence. In this episode of Health Savvy You, let's uncover the hidden social forces that shape what we think we know about health. From influencers whose likes double as credibility to viral myths that become “true” through repetition, I break down how misinformation spreads not just through content, but connection. Why does a TikTok health tip feel more believable than a doctor’s post? How do approval, identity, and lifestyle goals make us believe and share false info? Why does your feed make it so easy to ignore facts? Whether you’re a health pro or someone trying to make sense of your feed, this episode will change how you see what’s being sold to you as “truth.” Hit play and rethink what you believe.
