Question

What is 5 questions you should ask yourself when trying to tell if a health resource is reliable

Answer 1

The questions I ask myself are

1. Is it on wikipedia? Obviously if it is don't take the advice

2. Who is the source written by? A doctor or someone who just googled symptoms?

3. When was it written? Medicine is always changing so the data could be out of date.

4. Is it from a .net .com .org .edu? Some are more reliable than others. You wouldn't want to listen to a . com as much as a .org because organizations are better than a community.

5. Does it make sense? Can you go to a doctor and not sound silly?
