Healthy Tips: Internet

Healthy Tips

“Hey google knows!” How often do we find ourselves saying this or hearing someone else say it when we don’t know the answers to something?  The internet is an extremely valuable resource of information but anyone can put anything on the internet.  So how do we know if what comes up in our search results is accurate and can be trusted? Well what’s on top must be the best, right? Unfortunately, just because a search result is listed near the top doesn’t mean its better than any others.  All this means is that the company has managed to promote their page to being the “most popular” or paid for the privilege of being listed first.  These sites are not always the best place for getting quality health information, they may give you some of what you need to know but may not really the best place to look.  We have provided a list of some websites that are known to have more accurate health information. You can find list under our: Internet Resources for Health tap. If you know of any other good sources please let us know and we’ll be glad to add them to the list.
