Health myths under the microscope

Health myths spread quickly and persist, sometimes even for generations: Do you think you damage your eyes when you surf on your smartphone in the dark? Or are you still convinced that you can sweat out the flu? We question medical myths and replace prejudices with the facts.

We stay up to date for you and report on home remedies, herbal active ingredients and current nutritional trends according to the latest conventional medical knowledge.
