  • Fact Check: NOT All Disease Symptoms Result From Lymphatic System Expelling Toxins

    Fact Check

    Are all disease symptoms the result of the lymphatic system expelling toxins? No, that's not true: Such claims are a "vastly oversimplified concept of how disease in humans occurs," an expert in infectious disease told Lead Stories. Several factors, including exposure to infectious agents, environmental and lifestyle conditions, and genetic predispositions, cause diseases. Though there are some lymphatic system diseases,…

  • Fact Check: Dairy Does NOT Cause Asthma

    Fact Check

    Does dairy intake cause asthma? No, that's not true: Although someone with both a dairy allergy and asthma may experience heightened asthma symptoms if they consume dairy, dairy is not a root cause of asthma. Asthma may be caused by a variety of other factors, including environment, having a family history of asthma and previous respiratory infections. The claim appeared…

  • Fact Check: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Is NOT Proven To Cure Cancer

    Fact Check

    Does hyperbaric oxygen therapy cure cancer? No, that's not true: The Food and Drug Administration has not approved such therapy as a cancer treatment. In fact, the agency has been refuting this claim for over a decade. The claim reappeared in a post (archived here) on Instagram on February 24, 2024.

  • Fact Check: NO Evidence Apeel Is Injecting Vaccines Into Produce

    Fact Check

    Is Apeel, a company that makes an edible coating for fruits and vegetables, injecting "shots," or vaccines, into produce because Bill Gates owns the company? No, that's not true: There is no evidence that Apeel has anything to do with vaccines. Gates gave Apeel grants in 2012 and 2015, but did not found and does not own Apeel. Yahki, the…

  • Fact Check: NOT True That 'Radiation And Chemotherapy Actually Causes Cancer,' Except In Tiny Percentage of Cases

    Fact Check

    Is it true that chemotherapy and radiation "actually causes cancer"? No, that's not true: Both treatments are rigorously studied, evidence-based effective therapies against this disease: They cure cancer, not cause it. Some people do develop another cancer after the initial diagnosis, about 16 percent. But an oncologist interviewed by Lead Stories says that less than 1 percent of those second…
