Pharmacist and science communicator Kate Thomas
shares how a viral debunking video launched her into the world of
online health education. In this episode we explore the booming
“wellness woo” economy and sift through the weeds on why misleading
short-form content spreads so easily and the risks of unregulated
wellness influencers. Kate breaks down the truth about supplements,
the power of placebo, and why accessible, personalised health
advice is so hard to find online. She also highlights the important
role pharmacists play in helping consumers make informed
choices.
