Publisher's summary
A Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2018
An engaging and informative look at the real science behind our most common beliefs and assumptions in the health sphere
There is a lot of misinformation thrown around these days, especially online. Headlines tell us to do this, not that - all in the name of living longer, better, thinner, younger.
In Hype, Dr. Nina Shapiro distinguishes between the falsehoods and the evidence-backed truth. In her work at Harvard and UCLA, with more than twenty years of experience in both clinical and academic medicine, she helps patients make important health decisions everyday. She’s bringing those lessons to life here with a blend of science and personal stories to discuss her dramatic new definition of “a healthy life.”
Hype covers everything from exercise to supplements, diets to detoxes, alternative medicine to vaccines, and medical testing to media coverage. Shapiro tackles popular misconceptions such as toxic sugar and the importance of drinking eight glasses of water a day. She provides simple solutions anyone can implement, such as worrying less about buying products labeled organic or natural, and more about skipping vaccines, buying into weight-loss fads, and thinking you can treat cancer through diet alone.
This book is as much for single individuals in the prime of their lives as it is for parents with young children and the elderly. Hype provides answers to many of our most pressing questions, such as:
- Are online doctor ratings valuable, and what conditions can you diagnose online?
- What’s the link between snoring and ADHD?
- What do “Doctor Recommended” and “Clinically Proven” mean?
- Do “superfoods” really exist?
- Which vitamins can increase your risk for cancer?
- Do vaccines introduce toxins into the body?
- What’s the best antiaging trick of the day that’s not hype?
- Can logging 10,000 steps a day really have an impact on your health?
Never has there been a greater need for this reassuring and scientifically backed reality check.

How much of our daily caloric intake comes from ingesting substances that, technically speaking, do not meet traditional definitions of “food”? Chances are, if you’re eating something that came wrapped in plastic and contains a funky ingredient you don’t have in your kitchen, it's most likely—almost definitely—ultra-processed food, or UPF.

The United States spends an excess $1.5 trillion annually on health care compared to other wealthy countries—yet the amount of time that Americans live in good health ranks a lowly 68th in the world. At the heart of the problem is Big Pharma, which funds most clinical trials and therefore controls the research agenda, withholds the real data from those trials as corporate secrets, and shapes most of the information relied upon by health care professionals.

Are you taking calcium or vitamin D? This book could save your life! Learn the secret to avoiding osteoporosis and heart disease. Millions of people take calcium and Vitamin D supplements thinking they're helping their bones. The truth is, without the addition of Vitamin K2, such a health regimen could prove dangerous. Without Vitamin K2, the body cannot direct calcium to the bones where it's needed; instead, the calcium resides in soft tissue, like the arteries, leading to a combination of osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, or the dreaded "calcium paradox".

You are just 10% human. For every one of the cells that make up the vessel that you call your body, there are nine impostor cells hitching a ride. You are not just flesh and blood, muscle and bone, brain and skin, but also bacteria and fungi. Over your lifetime, you will carry the equivalent weight of five African elephants in microbes. You are not an individual but a colony. Until recently, we had thought our microbes hardly mattered, but science is revealing a different story, one in which microbes run our bodies and becoming a healthy human is impossible without them.

Story
The author of the highly acclaimed Overdiagnosed describes seven widespread assumptions that encourage excessive, often ineffective, and sometimes harmful medical care. You might think the biggest problem in medical care is that it costs too much. Or that health insurance is too expensive, too uneven, too complicated - and gives you too many forms to fill out. But the central problem is that too much medical care has too little value.

Balance is the key. Don't believe the hype.
Very nice book. Good to have a comprehensive introduction to the world of health, from a professional doctor.
My review contains spoilers:
The humam body is very complex, and you'll be surprised what harms you. Apparentlyn you shouldn't worry too much about chemicals. They are not as bad. Apples contain cyanide, and pears formaldehyde.
Still:
Don't give whole nuts to children under 5.
Do let new-borns get a vitamin k shot.
If you're a pregnant woman, do take folic acid supplement, unless you have some mutation which makes to harder to use the nutriens, but then do eat lots of greens.
Exercising just half an hour every day at a not too intense pase if good, but sitting is really bad.
Hydration: you don't need to drink 2 liters of water a day. Most water intake comes from the food you eat. As long as your pee looks yellow, you're fine :p
The author seems to have put some effort into looking at both the up and down sides of the things she talks about, so this seems a balanced book.
