Pseudoscience Exploration Area 4
Description
Book Introduction
This is the final installment of a comic series that has been serialized for about four years since 2017 and has been loved by many readers for its detailed explanation of pseudoscience. Beyond simply pointing out the absurd horror story that sleeping with a fan on will kill you, this volume delves into weighty topics that require a certain level of knowledge to uncover. We provide scientific knowledge by refuting false information through various papers and data on GMOs, which are intertwined with social issues, and effective microorganisms (EM) distributed to farmers by government offices as being helpful for agriculture. |

Publisher's Review
A popular science comic for those who are fascinated by the Kadera communication.
The final installment of 『Pseudoscience Exploration Area』!
Take off the blinders of lies! Understand the world scientifically.
Hans Rosling, founder of the Gapminder Foundation, which provides various statistical data with the motto of “fighting ignorance with a fact-based worldview,” says, “There is no need to try hard to ignore the fact that the world is getting better than we thought.”
Looking at various indicators such as human life expectancy and income level, the world is getting better.
Above all, it cannot be denied that science has contributed greatly to this progress.
However, today, when we have easily accessed safe food through strict food management and have overcome many diseases through vaccinations and improved public hygiene, paradoxically, we are more plagued by fears and horror stories about chemical additives and vaccines than ever before in history.
It seems that pseudoscientific frauds who only care about their own interests are driving us into needless pessimism.
The final installment of the comic book "Pseudoscience Exploration Area," which has been serialized for approximately four years since 2017 and has been loved by many readers for its detailed explanation of pseudoscience, has been published.
Beyond simply pointing out the absurd horror story that sleeping with a fan on will kill you, this volume delves into weighty topics that require a certain level of knowledge to uncover.
We provide scientific knowledge by refuting false information through various papers and data on GMOs, which are intertwined with social issues, and effective microorganisms (EM) distributed to farmers by government offices as being helpful for agriculture.
By knowing more, we can correct our misconceptions about the world.
I don't know much about science, so how can I avoid pseudoscience?
“You can just filter out anything that has the word ‘efficacy’ in it when describing something.” Knowledge is certainly empowering, but on the other hand, we can easily fall into a sense of helplessness that we can’t know everything.
To this end, 『The Field of Pseudoscience Exploration』 explains easy-to-understand criteria for filtering out misinformation.
It's about breaking free from the blind faith in "efficacy." In today's world, where information is easily shared and mass production is possible, it's difficult for a product to possess extraordinary efficacy that no other product possesses.
Conversely, if it really had such incredible efficacy, it would have been widely known and used in various fields long ago.
For example, if so-called "superfoods" truly balance the effects, strengthen the immune system, and even cure diseases, why don't hospitals recommend these natural foods to patients, but instead prescribe horrifying chemical and artificial medicines? If detox products truly remove toxins, why do kidney disease patients, who suffer from real "toxins," painfully use dialysis machines? The author recommends that when you see a product advertising such amazing benefits, you should ask yourself, "If it has such amazing benefits, why hasn't it become more popular?"
The secret to youth and health!!: Just eat ??? along with the right ??
The quiz everyone wants to answer! What's the secret to staying young, healthy, and living a long life? Could lemon water, known for its fat-burning properties and weight-loss benefits, be the secret? But if eating anything seems to help you lose weight, why do we still struggle with obesity?
Is coconut sugar the secret to a healthy sweet alternative to sugar? But when you look at the actual sugar content and glycemic index, coconut sugar is no different from regular sugar.
Could aromatic oils, known to be effective for sensitive skin and atopic dermatitis, be the secret? However, since aromatic oils can act as allergens for atopic dermatitis, which is often caused by allergic reactions, they can't be beneficial.
While it's good to be interested in your health, the author points out that fake health products are created by exploiting the psychology of people who want easy health tips.
Furthermore, we are deceived by advertisements that simply show certification marks that prove food safety, as if the efficacy has been officially proven, and by research papers that are packaged as if they are scientific despite having no credibility at all.
In this confusing situation, 『Pseudoscience Exploration Area』 presents an answer that is 'obvious, but the only shortcut to health.'
The answer to the quiz: Just eat in moderation along with proper exercise.
