Ask what a brain or nerve claim actually means · D9.13

Question a promise of new brain-cell growth

An activity or product is promoted with a neurogenesis claim.

Consider a practice claim

Try these steps

1. Write the specific claimed benefit and the evidence offered for people in circumstances like yours.
2. Distinguish an activity you enjoy from a medical or biological outcome it is said to produce.
3. Ask a qualified professional or consult reliable research before making a health decision based on the claim.

An example

I may enjoy learning a language without claiming that a lesson produces a measurable increase in new neurons.

Reflect

Does the claim connect evidence to the promised personal outcome?

Next time

Evaluate practical benefits separately from biological marketing.
