S5E3: Musings

About this episode

Greg and Jason discuss the importance of creatine for mitochondria and critique social media's portrayal of health concepts.

Greg and Jason pick up from the creatine episode and explain why creatine is so important to mitochondria, our bodies energy cells. We also explore a classic case of social media mis-selling - 'lymphatic reset'. Something that social media excels at - taking a kernel of real physiology and inflating it into something barely recognisable. And we talk miles vs kilometres. Which camp are you in?
