The Truth About Scientific Evidence You’re Not Hearing
You’ve heard politicians say things like “gold standard science” and “radical transparency.” But what do those actually mean, and how do they shape the health decisions that affect all of us?
In this episode, Dr. Evan Nadler, surgeon, scientist, and lifelong educator, offers a clear, thoughtful breakdown of how real scientific evidence is gathered, ranked, and used to guide public health policy.
Rather than fueling fear or finger-pointing, this video empowers you with the tools to think critically and confidently in a world full of noise.
You’ll learn:
● Why randomized controlled trials are powerful, but not always practical or ethical
● How levels of evidence work and why expert opinion still plays a role
● What to look for in studies, headlines, and health claims
● Where RFK Jr. missed the mark in his confirmation hearing — and why that matters
● How to ask better questions, think like a scientist, and advocate for your health
Whether you’re a parent, a patient, or a policymaker, this is your guide to making sense of science and staying grounded in what actually helps people live healthier lives.
