Recently, the health care products of a company are suspected of false and exaggerated propaganda, which has been at the forefront of the storm. Today I want to give you a few concepts.

What is health care? That is, measures that are preventive to physical and mental health, can keep people's enthusiasm and maintain the status quo of work.

Health care refers to the effective measures taken to maintain and improve people's mental and physical health. Including the prevention of various mental diseases caused by work, life, environment, etc., or the occurrence of various physical diseases caused by mental factors.

What is health care product? Health food is a popular term for health food.

In fact, it should include health food, health drugs, health cosmetics, health supplies and so on.

Health food has the nature of food, such as tea, wine, bee products, drinks, soup, fresh juice, medicinal food, etc., with color, fragrance, shape, quality requirements, generally no requirements on the dose; Strong wine should belong to this category! Maybe it's not for everyone!

Health drugs with nutritional, food nature of natural drugs, should be used in conjunction with treatment, usage and dosage requirements, currently with "health" batch number of drugs;

Health care cosmetics have the nature of cosmetics, not only have local small modification effect, but also have transdermal absorption, external internal effect, such as health care perfume, cream, mouthwash, etc.

Health care products have the nature of daily necessities, such as fitness machines, massagers, magnetic water devices, health bags, clothes, shoes and hats, MATS and so on.

With the increasing awareness of health care, the health food market is also unprecedentedly hot.

Health food contains a certain amount of effective ingredients, can regulate the function of the human body, has a specific effect, suitable for specific groups of people. General food does not have a specific function, there is no specific range of people to eat.

However, health food can not be directly used to treat diseases, it is a human mechanism regulator, nutritional supplement. Whereas drugs are used directly to treat diseases.

Remember that health food is for a specific group of people, not everyone can eat oh! And its nutritional value is not necessarily high. Therefore, the various nutrients that the human body needs should be obtained from three meals a day. But it can not be directly used to treat diseases, so sick or to take medicine oh!

So health food is actually very strange, neither treatment, can not be eaten as ordinary food, the provisions of the 'special population' is very vague, advertising but anyone can eat oh! And all kinds of functions are very complete.

A advertised product can eat anything, anything can be treated, then how much credibility of this product, your own weigh!

The production capacity, technical conditions, and production standards of drugs shall be strictly examined by the relevant departments of the State, and shall pass the strict examination of pharmacology, pathology, virus and clinical observation for many years, and shall be identified and approved by the relevant departments before being put on the market.

The drug must have the exact curative effect and indication, the adverse reaction is clear; Have strict indications, treatment of disease has a certain effect; The instructions on drugs are very strict.

Health care products do not need to go through hospital clinical trials at all, can be directly put into the market. It can be seen that the production standards and thresholds of health care products are very low; And health care products have no therapeutic effect, only to test pollutants, bacteria and other health indicators, qualified can be listed. Health product instructions are very rough.

In short, health care products do not have the widespread consumption of ordinary food, there is no drug listing standards and thresholds, and there is no clear efficacy.

The most afraid is that some illegal traders add some drug ingredients in health care products, and taking health care products is actually taking drugs.

You should know how to choose it, I as a doctor has always been the view that ordinary diet, plus a healthy lifestyle is enough. Health care products are not reliable. Take medicine when you are sick, eat normally when you are not sick.
