Scientists perform large population studies to determine causation and correlation. For example, our government required large population "clinical trials" of various Covid vaccines being developed to determine which was safest and most efficacious. So that's "how the heck do we find out". We make our own judgements based on limited data and have to deal with such things as the placebo effect where we might think an action causes us to feel differently, but may not be the reason we feel differently.
