Can you trust that study?

One study rarely flips the script.

See a study making headlines because it goes against what the grain? Ask yourself:

1. Has it been peer reviewed?
2. Are there any conflicts of interest?
3. Are the authors speaking outside their field of expertise?
4. Have their results been reproduced by other scientists?

If the answers are “no”, you should be really skeptical of the results. Instead, look for the scientific consensus!
