    They have it all wrong- Health Myths Debunked

    So much of what we hear about health sounds convincing… but isn’t actually true. In this special episode, Dr. Adelena takes a closer look at five of the most common health myths that can leave us feeling confused, frustrated, or even stuck in our wellness journey. She breaks down why “all natural” doesn’t always mean safe, why there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all diet, and why success isn’t just about having more willpower. Dr. Adelena also explains why working harder doesn’t always lead to better results- maybe sometimes you need to slow down, and why healing is rarely a straight, predictable path. Packed with insights and practical takeaways, this episode will help you separate fact from fiction and give you a clearer, more compassionate perspective on what it really takes to feel healthier and stronger.  Time Stamps: (01:05 )  Introduction: Why health myths matter (01:31 ) Myth #1: Are all natural things safe? (03:00)  Myth #2: This diet worked for them, it will work for me. (04:17)  Myth #3: Do you just need more willpower? (05:59)  Myth #4: No results? Just work harder… (Not true!) (06:52)  Myth #5: Is healing really linear? Check out Full Circle Health & The Third Opinion: Website | Facebook
