Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It can be dangerous to navigate the world of health advice in the information age we live in, where truth and fiction frequently blend together. There are many different types of medical myths, ranging from anecdotal stories passed down through the generations to viral misinformation propagated through social media platforms. These myths can have serious effects on both public health and individual health. Fundamentally, medical myths are theories or methods that have either been refuted by thorough research or have not been supported by science. These myths endure despite their disbelief and have the power to affect people's actions, choices, and even medical interventions. Medical myths may be the result of intentional disinformation, cultural traditions, or misconceptions. Either way, they can seriously endanger people's health and jeopardize public health initiatives. One of the most widespread misconceptions is the idea that "natural remedies are always safe." Although natural products have advantages, assuming their safety without conducting adequate research can have negative consequences. Another dangerous myth that is often spread is the idea that "you don't need vaccinations if you're healthy." Vaccinations are crucial for protecting vulnerable populations and preventing infectious diseases.
