FITNESS WORLD HYPE GAP
Health Hype Meter
Evidence strength tells you how strong the research is. Hype Gap tells you how much further the popular claim goes than the reviewed evidence.
LOW
Popular framing stays relatively close to the evidence.
MODERATE
The claim stretches beyond important limits or uncertainty.
HIGH
The popular or marketing framing goes materially further than the reviewed evidence.
Evidence strength and Hype Gap are different.
A claim can have some supporting evidence and still have a high Hype Gap if the popular version promises more than the studies actually show.
