Consumer Health
Consumer health has three components: health information, health

classmates is health information.
Health information plays a big role in the life of individuals. “It is
information that people require to make wise choices and decisions
about their health or the health of [other people]” (Galvez Tan, et al.,
2009).

1. Health information
Health information is any
concept, step, or advice that
various sources give to aid the
health status of an individual.

Reliable sources of health information and products are
licensed professionals who took up specialized and intensive
studies in the field.
Reliable Sources of Health Information are:
• Medical and Health Professionals

health officials
• Government Agencies
- Department of Health (DOH), Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Bureau of
Food ad Drugs (BFAD)
• Health Books
• Online sites

On the other hand, unreliable sources of
information and products are those from people
who are not experts in this field.
Unreliable sources of health information are:
• Outdated customs, practices and superstitious
beliefs without scientific basis

connected to healthcare. These
programs aim to appraise the
health conditions of individuals

aid, and ensure a follow-up
program for individuals who
