Join Edinburgh Skeptics online for the last of our four 2021 Edinburgh Science Festival events.  Tracey Jolliffe - In GOOP Health?  Founded  in 2008 by actress Gwyneth Paltrow, GOOP has gone from a weekly  lifestyle newsletter to a multi million dollar enterprise offering a  plethora of new-age 'wellness' products and services. They hit the  headlines again recently with the release of a six-part documentary  series on Netflix 'The GOOP Lab'. The show features a plethora of  pseudoscientific topics such as energy healing, psychedelic drugs, cold  therapy, anti-aging, mediumship, and female sexuality. In this talk we  will take a look at some of their products, the claims they make (with  the safety net of a carefully crafted legal disclaimer), and assess the  risk to public health.   About  the speaker: Tracey Jolliffe is a microbiologist working in the NHS.  She has presented many talks and posters at a national level. Most  notably amongst these are her three previous appearances speaking for  Edinburgh Skeptics (STIs, Organ Donation, and detailing her work as 'The  Batnurse')
