Consumer Reports Health.org

My husband has subscribed to Consumer Reports for several years. He recently received an email informing him of the NEW Consumer Reports Health.org site. I found this to be very interesting and wanted to share.

Consumer Reports has been known for their reviews of automobiles, appliances, electronic gadgets, and much more. Being reviewed by you the consumer, it gives an honest overall rating of the items. Now with Consumer Reports Health.org you will find excellent information on items such as their Healthy Living category. This includes: athletic shoes, exercise equipment, hair dyes, tooth whiteners, sunscreen, scales, heart rate monitors and MUCH more. The Conditions and Treatment category includes all sorts of ailments, sickness and disease and what is recommended for you in those situations. Back pain, headaches, cancer, heart disease, hay fever, head lice, sleep apnea, etc. There is even a section on prescription drugs. Find out what you are taking before you take it.

Of course my favorite category is Natural Health. This category alone will be the reason we purchase this subscription. They list common natural remedies such as ginger, fish oil, soy, garlic, calcium, flax seed, primrose oil, and on and on. This will be a great source of information as I continue my journey of living organic.



Two more categories that will be worth the subscription are those on Hospitals, Doctors, and Insurance. I believe having a consumer rating of these places and people is a great idea. When making a life changing decision, finding the right doctor and hospital is worth the time and research.

From my heart to yours, Angie Christine

It sounds like something we should all subscribe to.
