00:00:03.236 --> 00:00:06.906
>> Have you heard the scary

00:00:06.973 --> 00:00:07.841
news stories about how

00:00:07.907 --> 00:00:11.177
strangers are going to taint

00:00:11.244 --> 00:00:12.579
kids candy with pot now that

00:00:12.645 --> 00:00:16.516
it's getting more legal?

00:00:16.583 --> 00:00:17.717
There's no evidence for that.

00:00:17.784 --> 00:00:18.852
There's also no evidence that

00:00:18.918 --> 00:00:19.552
strangers poison kids

00:00:19.619 --> 00:00:20.520
Halloween candy in general,

00:00:20.587 --> 00:00:21.688
that's the topic of this

00:00:21.755 --> 00:00:23.790
week's Healthcare Triage.

00:00:23.857 --> 00:00:24.958
>> A well-known whose year

00:00:25.024 --> 00:00:26.092
Doctor has become a YouTube

00:00:26.159 --> 00:00:27.227
sensation with half a million

00:00:27.293 --> 00:00:28.027
subscriber. After Aaron

00:00:28.094 --> 00:00:30.296
Carroll's YouTube channel

00:00:30.363 --> 00:00:31.798
offers more than a dose of

00:00:31.865 --> 00:00:32.899
medicine, there's also some

00:00:32.966 --> 00:00:36.970
entertainment value, business

00:00:37.036 --> 00:00:37.904
of health reporter Kylie

00:00:37.971 --> 00:00:38.505
Veleta is back in studio with

00:00:38.571 --> 00:00:38.872
more. Caileigh?

00:00:38.938 --> 00:00:41.908
>> Thank you, Gary. Are

00:00:41.975 --> 00:00:42.809
mushrooms really better than

00:00:42.876 --> 00:00:47.380
antidepressants for treating

00:00:47.447 --> 00:00:48.548
depression all that rage about

00:00:48.615 --> 00:00:49.516
standup tasks, do they

00:00:49.582 --> 00:00:50.417
actually have any significant

00:00:50.483 --> 00:00:51.785
impact, these are the types of

00:00:51.851 --> 00:00:53.153
questions that I you she felt

00:00:53.219 --> 00:01:01.194
at officer Aaron Carroll

00:01:01.261 --> 00:01:02.362
tackles in his weekly show

00:01:02.429 --> 00:01:03.296
Healthcare Triage, like any

00:01:03.363 --> 00:01:03.997
good healthcare professional

00:01:04.063 --> 00:01:05.131
who relies on research and

00:01:05.198 --> 00:01:06.800
evidence to do it but he also

00:01:06.866 --> 00:01:07.967
makes it fun. And that's

00:01:08.034 --> 00:01:09.102
perhaps why the show has

00:01:09.169 --> 00:01:10.036
nearly half a million

00:01:10.103 --> 00:01:11.204
subscribers, and some of the

00:01:11.271 --> 00:01:12.372
videos more than 1 million

00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:13.973
views. A key goal of the show

00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:15.575
is to be a trusted source for

00:01:15.642 --> 00:01:18.445
health information, so one of

00:01:18.511 --> 00:01:19.579
his favorite topics to dive

00:01:19.646 --> 00:01:20.313
into is a health story that

00:01:20.380 --> 00:01:20.880
the media isn't presenting

00:01:20.947 --> 00:01:21.181
accurately.

00:01:21.247 --> 00:01:25.552
>> When I see bad news stories

00:01:25.618 --> 00:01:26.486
that are covering questionable

00:01:26.553 --> 00:01:27.420
research in ways that

00:01:27.487 --> 00:01:31.524
shouldn't be, we sort of love,

00:01:31.591 --> 00:01:32.225
nicely attacking and

00:01:32.292 --> 00:01:34.727
dissecting those. I think too

00:01:34.794 --> 00:01:36.729
often questionable research is

00:01:36.796 --> 00:01:38.131
used to scare people, and I

00:01:38.198 --> 00:01:40.099
really enjoy when we can bring

00:01:40.166 --> 00:01:41.968
people back to normal. We try

00:01:42.035 --> 00:01:43.937
to take good research data and

00:01:44.003 --> 00:01:47.373
evidence, and show how they

00:01:47.440 --> 00:01:48.575
should be applied to people's

00:01:48.641 --> 00:01:50.710
conceptions about health. If

00:01:50.777 --> 00:01:52.345
you told me that we would have

00:01:52.412 --> 00:01:53.279
someday half a million

00:01:53.346 --> 00:01:54.714
subscribers, or that tends if

00:01:54.781 --> 00:01:55.849
not hundreds of thousands of

00:01:55.915 --> 00:01:56.983
people would watch videos on

00:01:57.050 --> 00:01:58.151
topics that I think are

00:01:58.218 --> 00:01:59.285
important, I would be blown

00:01:59.352 --> 00:02:01.054
away. No, I never thought we

00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:02.121
would have this. It's

00:02:02.188 --> 00:02:06.659
absolutely joy. Is one of the

00:02:06.726 --> 00:02:08.094
few things I think I'd never

00:02:08.161 --> 00:02:09.629
ever give up as long as I

00:02:09.696 --> 00:02:10.930
don't have to.

00:02:10.997 --> 00:02:12.365
>> And Doctor Carol says he

00:02:12.432 --> 00:02:13.533
has no interest in becoming

00:02:13.600 --> 00:02:15.869
the next Dr Oz, it's just a

00:02:15.935 --> 00:02:16.936
fun side project for him and
