The key to good health is making informed decisions. Whether we\u2019re talking about nutrition, movement, supplements, or medication, it\u2019s important that you have all of the information available so that you can make an educated decision. The problem is that all of the relevant data isn\u2019t always easy to find.\xa0

Reading research studies can be confusing unless you have an understanding of certain terms and equations. In fact, some studies are even purposely complex and misleading. On this episode of The Model Health Show, Dr. Ronald Brown is here to share his recent work on reporting bias in COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials.\xa0

You\u2019re going to learn about an important distinction between relative risk reduction and absolute risk reduction. Dr. Brown is sharing pertinent information about reporting data, clinical trials, and mRNA technology. I hope this episode gives you insight into clinical research and how it is presented to the public so that you can make more informed decisions about your health. Enjoy!\xa0
