Research two of the three options in the graphic organizer to find health solutions that could improve the health issue. List three products, services, or preventative practices for each health issue chosen. You may ask others to recommend health solutions, then research those found in your community. Review the effectiveness and safety of each product or service, and cite credible sources to back up your review. Lastly, choose the most effective health solution associated with the health issue, and include reasoning to support your choice.

Cancer: Why is it that only the very expensive places that you can travel to have everything down to a meal planned to assist you with dying or getting better?  Shouldn't all medications and procedures be made available to anyone that needs it? Just because cancer treatments are alot of money, some people have the cancer but not the money. This needs to change.

Weight Loss: There are so many options available, but yet the education of how to eat and live healthy is forgotten.  If we would take the time to teach families how to eat healthy, help them with the grocery list, and provide classes to help them learn how to prepare these items in a healthy manner would be appropriate and beneficial.

Diabetes: All people do not have access to everything that they need and they often cannot afford the office visits, etc to include the medication and food prep that they need. This could cause their condition to get worse. There should be ways for people to get the medicine they need even if they can’t afford it.

Other Stuff: People are going to have to be taught how to make an appropriate decision based on their healthcare and their families needs.  We cannot continue to expect a young mother that is poor and does not have transportation and does not have the money to buy certain foods to be healthy and to make healthy  meals for her family.We need to work on is not making these young mothers feel guilty based on how to care for their children/family.  Most of them are trying their best and our message to them is that they need to be responsible and give healthy choices to their children/family.  Classes need to be made available online and at certain places in the community so that the solutions to the health problems are attainable for everyone.  People need to receive incentives for attending these type of classes and they may even need a computer or transportation.
