Health vs. Hype: Using Data to Make Smarter Health Choices

This was a fun chat with Jeremy Cline, a former lawyer in the UK, turned life coach.

Our conversation meandered around:

  • How to make life changes that will improve your health

  • The importance of an annual away-day

  • How to distinguish between hype and helpful health information

  • The fact that you are an individual and what works for one person may not work for you

  • Universal truths that most scientists agree will improve your health such as uncompromising sleep, movement and wholesome food

  • How fundamental and important these universal truths are and the best place to start before you look for the silver bullet that doesn’t exist
