Does drinking lemon water increase your metabolism? Does intermittent fasting truly help you to lose weight? In the world of influencer marketing and clickbait, we can easily fall into the trap of believing a trend simply because it’s popular, and not actually take the time to do our scientific research on the topic. This week I am joined by the host of the Beauty and the Biotech Beast podcast, Paige Halas, who will help me debunk and UNTWIST some of our favorite fitness trends and myths through the power of scientific research. We love a researcher moment!
