You know you’ve done it. We’ve all been there.
Remember that time when you or your child came down with some weird symptoms?
You went online and searched WebMD or a similar site.
What came back didn’t offer much help but it sure scared the heck out of you.
You might have even thought that there has to be a better way, something that is clear and won’t ratchet up your anxiety.
Nowadays when you research anything related to health you inevitably run into a lot of technical jargon.
It’s all too easy to get overwhelmed. I do sometimes and I’ve been a scientist for more than 20 years.
Sometimes just trying to do research can have a negative impact on your health.
But we at Science Defined believe that there is another way.
Read on to see you how.
