Old people have always been keen to buy health care products. Although the family tried to persuade them again and again, they just wouldn't listen, so they believed the bluff of others. When other people's sweet words fooled them, they were cheated. The most important thing is that they don't think they have been cheated, but they think they have got a big bargain.

If you want to prove that some health care products are deceptive, unless you wake up. Because there is a relative in my family who is like this. He is now over 80 years old. Since he was over 70 years old, he has been listening to lectures all day and buying various health products. Because he has a retirement salary, it is not easy for his children to interfere with him. Tell him not to buy it, but he won't listen. The home is full of all kinds of health products. If you can't use it yourself, distribute these health care products to relatives.

To prevent the elderly from buying health care products, we can start from the following aspects.

First, popularize relevant scientific knowledge. The elderly have many misunderstandings and cognitive errors about nutrition, health care and drugs. Due to information asymmetry, many elderly people lack medical knowledge and professional knowledge about drugs and are easily misled by various advertisements. Therefore, it is very necessary to improve the health literacy of the elderly and enhance their health care concept. You can invite doctors or nutritionists to give lectures, popularize nutrition knowledge and medical knowledge, and give practical examples to prove the links of these health care products.

Second, providing scientific evidence is the best way to persuade the elderly. We can provide them with scientific research information, support their views with scientific and real data, and show them that a large number of studies show that health care products are only exaggerated and cannot play a real health care role.

Third, reveal the marketing model of the drug market. The marketing coverage of health care products is very wide, from media promotion to online endorsement, sometimes it is inevitable that there will be a parrot effect. Therefore, it is very necessary to break these rumors, reveal the drug market, and let the elderly know the marketing strategy of health care products, which can help the elderly distinguish real professional drugs from those health care products that are not effectively believed, and teach them never to believe in advertisements, especially those without scientific evidence.

In short, explaining the true meaning of health care products to the elderly and improving their scientific literacy and health awareness are necessary steps to prevent them from being misled and fooled, ensure their health, provide scientific basis and reveal the drug market through education, reduce consumption, and enhance their risk awareness, their health level and quality of life.
