How to read health news by Dr Alicia White Dr. White provides a series of questions for readers to ask themselves when their interest is peaked by an outrageous headline. "Does the article support its claims with scientific research? Your first concern should be the research behind the news article. If an article touts a treatment or some aspect of your lifestyle that is supposed to prevent or cause a disease, but doesn’t give any information about the scientific research behind it, then treat it with a lot of caution. The same applies to research that has yet to be published."
