Ineed 3 people to answer this. interviewee name: age: gender: job: date and time of interview: what are some major health concerns that you have? are there ways that you know you can prevent these health concerns (or other concerns like obesity)? if you need to find out more about a specific health issue, what do you do? be specific. (don’t let them say “look on the internet”, because we have already learned that not everything on the internet is reliable! they should tell you a specific site if they use the internet as a source.) what do you think is the biggest health concern facing our country? what are some things that you do to monitor your health? how do you monitor your food and water intake now? how would you get the word out about this lifestyle change? how do you think the media influences what concerns we have for our health? do you have experience working in corporate wellness? what are your strengths?
