Precautions for purchasing health care products: Don't buy health care products delivered by lectures. Every morning when walking, there are many elderly people waiting in line at the door of a block. I was curious to see it. The words expert lecture are posted on the closed door, and even newspapers are posted on the windows. Outside, you can't see what's going on inside. Several old people said that there are experts in a big hospital, and there are not many patients receiving treatment every day. People give you free treatment and tell you some medical knowledge. This is a typical health care product scam, and it is this scam that makes the elderly feel extremely excited and will not hesitate to give their pensions to these scammers. Remember, don't buy the so-called health products that these experts sell during their lectures. Almost all are liars. Real experts can't "lecture" like MLM organizations.
Don't buy free health care products, especially in some urban-rural fringe areas or rural areas. This situation is particularly common. Several people were wearing white coats and holding signs of free consultation and free medicine taking. As long as the elderly participate in a series of activities, such as letting "doctors" see a doctor for free, they will give health care products to the elderly for free. This is really a great temptation for the elderly. They get free medicines, and then they have to pay for those health care products voluntarily.
Do not buy "high-tech" health care products. High-tech health care products are a kind of "health care products" that confuse, curiosity and trust the elderly. What uses nanotechnology, uses various high-tech technologies, and produces high-tech health care products with the most common ingredients, etc. Such advertising words convince the elderly, but they can't understand them anyway, so they think these words are high-end, high-tech and must be good, so they don't care no matter how much they spend. In fact, the so-called high-tech health care products bought home are just some ordinary foods, even some calcium tablets and vitamins.
Don't buy health products without the "Little Blue Hat" logo. In addition to not buying health care products in those messy occasions, when the elderly buy health care products, they should also pay attention to whether the health care products you buy have the logo of "Little Blue Hat". The "Little Blue Hat" sign is a sign of health food and an approval sign of health food. In some pharmacies, some health products will be sold quietly. These health care products have no quality guarantee, and it is even impossible to have a little blue hat logo. Therefore, even if it is a health care product in a pharmacy, it is necessary to see if there is a little blue hat sign. If not, don't buy it.
Precautions for taking health care products: health care products are not drugs for treating diseases. How many elderly people don't want to take medicine, but pin their hopes for treatment on health care products? There are many such old people. They think that medicine is toxic in three ways, and taking medicine to treat diseases will destroy the body, so they will choose some health care products, thinking that health care products can treat diseases without side effects. The efficacy of health care products can only play the role of adjuvant therapy, and only when combined with drugs can it play the role of adjuvant therapy. Without drugs, the efficacy of health care products can be said to be almost zero. So the old man is sick, so he should take medicine well and cooperate with health care products. Health care products should never be treated as medicine.
Health care products are not nutritional products, which is also a misunderstanding for the elderly to take health care products. No matter what kind of health care products, as long as they have health care effects on the body, it is impossible to take them 365 days a year, even if you have three meals a day. In fact, the efficacy of health care products is far less than that of whole grains, vegetables and fruits. If the elderly adjust three meals a day, then such three meals a day can be better than health care products. Therefore, don't treat health care products as nutrients, let alone as panacea.
Never take health care products with milk and drinks. Most health care products are not suitable to be taken with milk, so the calcium in milk will combine with some substances in health care products, which will not only lead to the loss of health care products, but also lead to a series of health problems. In addition, some elderly people like to take health care products containing plumeria, which is also unacceptable. Before taking health care products, you must consult your doctor about these questions, asking whether to eat before or after meals, whether to take them with warm water or chew them, and so on. Different ways of taking health care products will have different effects. Once taken improperly, it may directly lead to various health problems, which must be paid attention to.
Do not take expired or deteriorated health care products. Most elderly people have experienced some hardships, so they have developed a good habit of thrift, but this good habit will also become a bad behavior that harms their health and even their lives. For example, the elderly hardly care about the shelf life of food, medicine and health care products. In their view, things that don't taste bad are fine. It is not a problem for them that health care products are out of date, damp and spoiled, and they can take effect when they are eaten in their stomachs. This kind of thinking and habit will directly threaten the health and life of the elderly. Therefore, before taking health care products, check whether they have expired.
