- wolf550e 8y agoKuhn's theory certainly applies to history of physiology because that is a science. But most of what you think about as health theories (e.g. is doing X good for you) are not scientific, they are marketing for products and services or clickbaity misrepresentations of weak studies. Basically, Kuhn applies to NEJM but not to Cosmopolitan.
