From 2007 into the health care industry, after ten years, and choose to leave, to ask the health care guarantee is not useful, I can only say: useful.

First of all, the formal health care efficacy of health care products have more than a dozen categories (approved more than a dozen categories), this is not empty talk, not that his health care efficacy is bought with money, but after the composition of the conclusions and judgments drawn from the test, with a blue hat must go through this pass, this aspect of the audit is also more stringent point;

Secondly, most of the original health products made of dual-use ingredients, and then the country introduced a new resource food catalog, a lot of new resource food materials are also used as processed health products, and the most notable point is that the earliest health products containing traditional Chinese medicine to be dual-use ingredients have been among the "national drug team" (most of the National Drug Permit B is) also Sort of health care products team because of the policy or ingredients of the lucky ones;

Finally, when it comes to health care products have to mention the founder of China's health care products XX Yuanqi bag, outside of the medical system, aroused the concept of national health care, especially the sentence: sick cure XXX, no disease strong body Yuanqi bag, (of course, that era of such propaganda can not be relied upon), however, is a small Yuanqi bag, so that a lot of people's body to get the daily conditioning, useful, there is no need to doubt (with a bib can have the effect) can have a role, not to mention that this also added some herbs).

So why do people think that health supplements don't work? It's actually understandable, and there may be mainly the following reasons:

First of all, the health care market has been done to death by operators.

1. High prices, factory prices and retail prices less than 1:4 or more, investment is a problem 😓, marketing, advertising and promotion, etc., are money, some years ago, basically 30% of the cost of advertising and marketing, 30% of the cost of personnel, the boss to take away 20% of the gross profit, public relations, open stores, etc. 5-10%. Can leave the product cost is also 10-20%.

2. Counterfeit, health care products, high gross profit, triggering many people to violate the law, the production of substandard products, counterfeit products, and even make something out of nothing to eat something that does not kill or add some prohibited ingredients, design packaging, planning concepts, casually get a product, some in order to enhance the effect of illegal additions, in short, in a word: counterfeit and shoddy products are prevalent.

3. Extreme marketing. In the early stages of the main use of the media, experts trumpeted the efficacy, there is a term in the line called health care products, is a cure for all diseases, the use of concepts, expert lectures, clinics and other ways to exaggerate the publicity, not into the prevention of disease can also cure the disease, which is not right,,, and then the media control, it was changed to telemarketing, conference marketing to play, experiential marketing, tourism marketing, hit the head of the direct sales and other ways, the most infamous is the 311, 411, shed will, health base tour, and so on, the problem comes: consumption of this single consumption can easily be tens of thousands of dollars, or even more than 100,000, it does affect the relationship between many families and normal life, a lot of elderly people can not afford to eat, health care products set a house, and children care also can not.

4. Slowly the reputation is bad!

Health care is a scam, do health care out of the door degree dare not say that they are doing which line, in fact, with the increasingly strict regulation and people's understanding of health care group gradually clear, the health care industry should return to its due position itself, because the regular health care products are indeed useful.

But then again, with the therapeutic diet and Chinese medicine to treat the disease of the flat universal, health care products should be on the one hand in product quality, on the other hand, accurately grasp the positioning of the industry and the product, otherwise it is likely to be replaced by functional foods, special medical products, etc., more and more no market.

Once, I thought it was useless.

I'm highly nearsighted with thousands of degrees, and I have to work on the computer for almost ten hours a day, with a little bit of PlayStation and King of Kings in between.

Suddenly one day the eyes just didn't work, they were tearing up at the sight of the wind, pins and needles, and red, and every day the eyes hurt so much they wanted to gouge out.

Ophthalmology department of a tertiary hospital, almost every doctor I know, eye pressure is not high, there is no inflammation, but just pain, diagnosis is overuse of the eyes. Eye drops doctors are not allowed to use, said too much, but the eyes are still not good, every day upset.

Here comes the twist, it's definitely not an advertisement, no no no no.

When I went to the drugstore to buy eye drops, the shopper recommended to take Jianshijia, and I didn't believe it at all, it was a health product. But at that time, my eyes were as red as rabbits every day, and it hurt, so I bought it and took it.

After taking what must have been about three bottles, I suddenly realized that my eyes were getting better and not hurting from who knows when.

I've been taking it for about six years now, and I've never had it again, so I think, it works.

China's health care products, especially medicines, food and liquids, it can be said that nine out of ten are fake, are fooling you, anyway, can not cure the disease can not kill. But the profit is very big. Especially many elderly people, old age, the more afraid of death. It is only at this time that they remember to take care of their bodies through health care products, and as a result, they lose their money to these fraudsters. They themselves are just getting a kind of psychological comfort. This also further illustrates that to live a long life, the key is to adjust their own mentality, longevity and health, just like making money, the more you want to think about the more you will not get, you are afraid of death every day to live in fear and anxiety. When you relax your mind and adjust your mood, you will naturally live a long and healthy life. Don't listen to those pushers to sell health care products, and don't go to listen to those lectures. Of course, if you want to go to listen, you can also go, the distribution of goods can also take, but to pay, do not pay, their purpose is to see the little money in your pocket. Try this lecture authentic or not, there is no with the nature of fraud. You that is a cell phone to take pictures of photography and videography will know, if stopped, nine times out of ten are problematic fraud sales seminars!

The fact that health care works is not something that should have been discussed in the first place.

Today, we are all discussing such issues, and some people have a deep hatred for health care products. The reason for this is simply because the health care market today is characterized by mixed fish eyes, exaggerated propaganda, and even unscrupulous businessmen talking nonsense, which makes the good health care products lose their reputation.

Health care products are not guilty, so the name Siyi, the food of health care, health care supplies.

Health care is not God, not a cure, not to mention a cure for all diseases. With health care products to cure self-deception, from this point of view, it is indeed not very useful, at the very least, is not able to play a major role, at best, is to pave the way to help their own role.

Health care products are harmless, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state, health care products must ensure the safety, which is a red money, can not be more than. As for counterfeiting, the so-called health care products that harm people is actually a ghost, can not put the ghost of the ghost should not put the ghost of the crime to the head of the Li Kui it!

Health care products are useful, is the treatment of disease, is to regulate sub-health, is in the pre-disease period, by correcting the bias of the organism, so that it returns to the normal track.

Also the original face of health care products, so that they play their due role in serving human health. The cause of health is the most taboo to become a prop to make money!

Do health supplements actually work?

There is!

How useful is it?

Not as good as rice and plain water.

Why?

Let me explain ---->

Nutraceuticals are, by their very nature, food.

The essential nutrients that a person needs to get from food can be divided into six main categories:

• Sugars (carbohydrates)
  

• lipids
  

• carbohydrate
  

• vitamins
  

• mineral, esp. dietary mineral
  

• 水
  

Man has gradually adapted to his environment over tens of thousands of years of evolution, and all of his needs for these basic nutrients can be obtained from food.As long as there is no partiality or a lack of food variety from a single source, there is no problem of nutrient deficiencies.

Common health products on the market advertised as rich in such and such nutrients, such as amino acids, nucleic acids, peptides, omega3, calcium, iron, zinc and selenium ...... etc.Sounds very high, in fact, can be summarized in the above categories of basic nutrients, in the daily food. Only when the body lacks these, eat them to have a "health" effect. Otherwise, eat them with more than a few sips of water, compared to not much difference.

In terms of nutritional value, supplements are still nowhere near as important to us as rice and plain water (don't believe me, try taking supplements for a week and not eating.)

In foreign countries, health products are called "dietary supplements", which also well illustrates that health products are actually the essence of food.

When can supplements be useful in promoting health?

As mentioned earlier, unless you are deficient in certain nutrients in your body due to various reasons, then supplementing with the appropriate nutrients will still have some health promoting effects.

For example, during pregnancy, due to increased nutritional needs, you may need to take extra folic acid supplements; if you are partial to picky eating and don't like to eat vegetables and fruits, you may need to take certain vitamins; if you have mild anemia, you can take more iron supplements; if children have rapid growth and development, you may need to take calcium supplements ......

Selling on ingredients other than basic nutrients is all bragging rights.

It is true that we have found many new substances of potential therapeutic value in certain plants, but theirThe therapeutic effect is not yet proven, otherwise it would have been developed as a drug. But businessmen can hardly wait to take it out as a selling point and develop it into a commodity. These kinds of health products have no practical value.

On the other hand.Nor is it possible for there to be a cure-all drug, and it is an unrealistic fantasy to rely on one or more substances to strengthen the body.

So, supplements that don't aim to replenish essential nutrients are blowing smoke.

summarize

1 What is in accordance with nature is the healthiest.

2 Medicine is not as good as food.

3 Good living habits, a reasonable diet, and adherence to sports and exercise, the three should not be neglected.

4 There are no shortcuts to a healthy body, so give up your illusions about supplements!

Welcome to Dr. Cheng's Hundred Highs to talk about life and health.

Two days ago, the Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group's claim that Wanglaoji can prolong life by 10% caused an uproar, and a financial writer wrote a post criticizing the Wanglaoji scam, triggering memories of health care products for several generations.

People reported that they had taken, used, or heard of health supplements.

Spectrum therapeutic instrument, Shen Gong Yuan Qi belt, Cardinal K, Life One, Ant Power God to name a few, each product, although most of them eventually disappeared, have the mark of the times and become the special memories of that generation.

On the land of China, although there are almost no original drugs, but health care products are the first in the world, each of which can boost immunity, prolong life and fight cancer, but the average life expectancy of Chinese people is not the highest in the world.

Fortunately, I myself have a clear understanding of these supplements and have never purchased any of them myself, nor have I bought any for my aging parents.

Health care is not the same as health care products, health care should be a healthy lifestyle.

Health food is hidden in our food market, the meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, fruits, cooking oil, rice and noodles, etc. to make a good combination, control the intake of calories, is the best health food.

Health care products are also hidden in our lives, so you can use all the available items around you to work out or go to the gym to get fit.

Scientific diet and exercise is the best way to take care of your health.

The questioner is a senior in high school. Senior year of high school can be said to be the most stressful stage in a lifetime, and studies are really busy. Many parents expect that there are any health supplements that can increase their children's immunity and replace their physical exercise and sleep, so that their children can be energetic enough to take the exams even though they do not have enough sleep and exercise. This child expects the same.

What I'm trying to tell you is that there is no such thing as a good thing. Human beings are living beings and organisms, not robots that run on just a charge. Human beings are very complex and there is definitely not a certain health supplement that can keep a person healthy. One has to have enough nutrition, do proper exercise, and must also get enough sleep to stay energized and healthy. There are no shortcuts to good health.

A few years ago, there was a news story about a school that had an epidemic of senior high school students receiving fluids while attending classes, and it wasn't that the kids were sick, it was that they were receiving health and nutritional supplements. For a healthy person to eat by mouth can get enough nutrition. And the so-called health products used for infusion is very dangerous.

We understand the pressure on senior kids, but any success should be on a healthy premise; don't ruin your child's body for success. No matter how stressful senior year is, it's important to set aside half an hour a day to exercise and make sure you get more than six hours of sleep.

The question of whether health products are useful or not and what kind of effects they have must be viewed from the perspective of the official definition of the State Food and Drug Administration in order to get as complete an interpretation as possible.

According to the explanation of the State Food and Drug Administration in 2012, health food refers to "food claiming to have specific health care functions or for the purpose of supplementing vitamins and minerals. That is, suitable for consumption by a specific group of people, with the function of regulating the body, not for the purpose of treating diseases, and does not produce any acute, subacute or chronic harm to the human body." According to this discourse, theWe can summarize the 4 most important characteristics of health care products。

1 Is there a therapeutic role for specific diseases?

Obviously.Health products do not have therapeutic effects on specific diseasesAny health product that claims to have a therapeutic effect on any specific disease (e.g. hypertension, diabetes, tumors, etc.) is suspected of false advertising. The role of drugs is to target the therapeutic effect of specific diseases, in the premise of disease diagnosis, the choice of drugs standardized treatment is the best way.

2 Does it regulate the overall functioning of the body?

In general.The role of health supplements is mainly to regulate and improve the overall functioning of the bodyIt should have a broader scope of action, for example, the function of enhancing immunity, not for a particular type of immunoglobulin supplementation, but the overall immunity improvement. And drugs are generally not described as the regulation of the overall function, but need to accurately target a certain indicator, a certain type of substance, a certain tissue to have an effect, for example, injectable thymopeptide, its indications for the treatment of a variety of primary or secondary T-cell defective disease, a variety of cellular immune function of low-functioning disease, and so on.

3 Are there acute, sub-acute or chronic hazards?

Health food is still a food and daily exposure may be higher soHealthcare products must not cause any acute, sub-acute or chronic harm to the human bodyIn simple terms, it is as safe as rice and milk. Drugs, on the other hand, are therapeutic substances for a specific period of time, and their therapeutic properties determine the inevitability of their side effects. Therefore, in general, medicines have certain side effects and contraindications, that is to say, they have a certain degree of harmfulness.

4 What is the difference between fast and slow onset of action (onset of effect)?

Drugs have well-defined onset times that vary depending on the disease being treated; for acute conditions, nitroglycerin for angina pectoris will take effect within 5 minutes of sublingual administration, and albuterol aerosol for acute asthma exacerbations will take effect within 5 minutes of inhalation. For chronic conditions, atorvastatin for hyperlipidemia has a peak blood concentration time of 1-2 hours, and efficacy can be observed for weeks or months.Unlike medicines, health supplements take a longer time to have an effect, there is no clear, fixed time, and it will not be a panacea that works as soon as you take it.。

These are the 4 most important differences between supplements and medicines.In a nutshell, health supplements are functional foods that do not have specific disease-treating effects, but rather can slowly improve and regulate the body's overall skills, and can be taken appropriately for long periods of time.Supplements are not a substitute for medicines when there is a clearly diagnosed disease.

Health care for life and health care is the most fundamental need of the elderly. However, before the author through practical experience, to tell you why "the elderly under the independent choice must take health care products" reasons. We must be clear on the market counterfeit health products, as well as false propaganda to deal with the way, so as to avoid the elderly to be deceived.

Two messages must be emphasized at the outset

First, health care products are not medicines and can never replace medicines, let alone have the function of curing diseases;

Secondly, only with the "health" is the real health products, did not see this sign, it is absolutely not health products.

The picture above is the "Healthy" name, so please remember it.

And, it is important for all seniors to be clear that no matter who sells you health care products, and no matter how much you trust them, any description of their health care products cannot possibly cross the line between the two points mentioned above.

At the same time, do not say "not because you have not seen, to deny the existence of" words, we must remember, the world of any kind of breakthrough research results, it is impossible to take the "sold first and then registered" approach, because once it is registered first, the loss may be The reason is that once it is registered before others, the loss may be a huge amount of research expenses.

So recognizing signs and features, as well as identifying authenticity, is the only way to keep seniors from being scammed.

Now, let's explore what health care is again.

The nutraceuticals on the market today are actually extracts of micronutrients from raw food materials

The more common ones are "vitamins", "spirulina", "carotene", "calcium", "iron", etc. These are trace elements extracted directly from plants and animals and can replace food intake by taking the corresponding supplements directly, "Iron", etc. These are trace elements extracted directly from plants and animals, and can be taken as a substitute for food intake by taking the corresponding supplements directly.

For example, I have a period of time the eyes are not very comfortable, a more effective way is to supplement the "carotene", although this element is called "carotene", but not only carrots, such as broccoli, goji berries, tomatoes, these, contain Carotene.

However, the author is a person who does not like to eat vegetables but only meat, and the age is not suitable for the company to soak goji berries. So directly eat "carotene" as a substitute, which is the function of health care products.

At the same time, it can be thought of in this way:When the body is deficient in a specific trace element, it can choose to consume the corresponding plant or animal, or to supplement the trace element directly.The former can be called "health food", while the latter is called "health product".

The term "health care" is more proactive and selective, based on the need for micronutrient supplementation. Therefore, it also differs from a normal diet.

But "health food" is mandatory, "health care" is not.

Because the author does not like to eat vegetables and has to supplement the appropriate micronutrients, he takes health supplements.

For a person who eats a normal diet, it is important to have a balanced nutritional profile, and by adjusting the menu appropriately, specific "health food" supplements can be achieved.

Therefore, people must take specific foods based on their health care needs in order to be healthy. This also reflects the need for "health food".

However, while supplements can be used as a substitute for micronutrients, they are by no means necessary and exclusive.

It's like needing vitamin C. Lemons are great, but you're afraid of acid, so you can eat dates and kiwis instead, rather than having to take a vitamin C supplement specifically to replace it.

Therefore, this is an area that everyone must pay attention to, especially the elderly. During the author's time in the elderly care industry, I have found that many elderly people have ended up buying a lot of, very expensive, trace element supplements that are not actually of high value because of a lack of information.

Especially vitamins and those things, just eat more fruits and vegetables, no need to spend more money on supplements.

On the flip side, though, do health care products mean anything at all to the elderly?

It may make absolutely no sense to a lot of people, but the author is going to tell you - it does.

It is important to realize that while micronutrient supplementation is easy and can be solved by eating, it is a complex scientific issue as to how much to eat and how many types to eat.

Coupled with the fact that the elderly's meal size is really limited, they dare not eat more, so it may lead to some micronutrient supplementation is insufficient or untimely.

In this case, you go and tell the elderly:"Don't take supplements, just eat more fruits and vegetables."

That's true, but it doesn't solve the problem because many times older people can't eat anymore.

There are also some conditions, some diseases that require fasting in the elderly, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and so on.

This can lead to foods that are simply inedible, but which contain micronutrients that the body needs and which are difficult to replace with other foods, or other foods that may cause entirely new problems when replaced.

What about this situation?Then surely it's better to just take a micronutrient supplement, so why worry about a little bit of an element?

Moreover, I have investigated the health care market, regular health care products, that is to say, there is a "health" health care products, trace elements of the product are generally not expensive, ordinary people can afford to spend.

On the contrary, many of those very expensive ones are coined or falsely advertised, and some even go so far as to say that eating their stuff can cure diseases.

In this regard, elderly friends must pay attention to, health care products are not drugs, more objectively speaking, health care products are in fact food, is a kind of food purification, is not a cure.

Are health supplements really not? As a registered dietitian, I'm going to be responsible and tell you that supplements work!

Certain recent news events have pushed health care products to the forefront, and many people say that health care products are just fooling people, and health care products are just cheating money, so are health care products useful or not? Of course it is useful.

Let me give you a few common examples to illustrate this point. Vitamin D, for example, has the primary function of promoting calcium absorption, preventing rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. In addition to this, vitamin D also improves immunity and plays a wide range of other roles. The main source of vitamin D in the body is sunlight. However, in winter or in areas with high air pollution, sunlight exposure is severely insufficient, leading to a decrease in the synthesis of vitamin D. At this time, supplements containing vitamin D are useful.

Then there's calcium. The calcium requirement for the average adult is 800 milligrams per day, and it's higher for pregnant women, breastfeeding women, people over 50, and teenagers under 18. Diets rich in calcium include milk, green vegetables and soy products. However, a person should consume more than 300 milliliters of milk, more than one kilogram of vegetables, especially leafy greens, and a moderate amount of soy products to meet the body's calcium needs. If it is not possible to consume a sufficient amount of calcium from the diet, supplements containing calcium are useful.

The third example given is vitamin C. As you know, vitamin C is found in abundance in fresh fruit. For example, one kiwi fruit contains about 50 mg of VC. An adult's daily requirement for Vitamin C is 100 mg. Some people would say, "Well, I can eat two kiwis a day, why would I need to take vitamin C supplements? The question is, can you guarantee to eat two kiwis every day? Work intense overtime, business trips, traveling. There are also many special situations where there is no way to ensure adequate intake of vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables, and this is when it is useful to carry a bottle of vitamin C-containing supplements with you.

From the above few simple examples can be seen health care is very necessary, as ordinary consumers, to do is combined with the actual situation of their own body and the specific efficacy of health care products to choose, at the same time to choose health care products, to the formal channels, such as drugstores, such as major health care brands of the official flagship store. At the same time to recognize the National Drug Food Supervision Administration issued by the health of the certification. Also want to emphasize the point that health care products are not a substitute for drugs. Have a disease but also to the regular hospital treatment.

Answer: Sun Jihong, Licensed Pharmacist, Registered Dietitian, Member of the Chinese Nutrition Society. Headline: Registered Dietitian Sun Jihong.

If a thing hanging in the name of "health care" to sell you, claiming that internal consumption can treat a variety of difficult diseases, but also can lose weight to prevent cancer, external application can be beauty care to slow down the aging process, then to today's science and technology, I'm sorry, such a thing is a fraudster to cheat the tool only.

For example, today we are talking about the "vinegar and egg rejuvenating liquid", I believe that most readers will not buy. But this kind of product is aimed at the customer is not "smart" young people, but most of the old people who do not understand the "scheme".

Today I am going to peel back the layers of the usual tricks of all such scams and if necessary please speak calmly to the elders.

Why do illegal health products prefer the microbusiness channel?

Let's talk about this was blown God's "vinegar and eggs to the liquid", the main sales channels are micro-business and a small portion of the "physical experience stores", but the micro-business accounted for ninety percent of the official website because they are directly connected to the channel is the micro-business channels.

Why do these "miracle drugs" tend to micro business channels? BecauseThe microbusiness channel has the cheapest advertising investment and the ability to make short-term profits.

"Vinegar and egg to Yuan liquid" was first produced by Xi'an Enhui Biotechnology Co., Ltd., as early as 2015, this enterprise was administratively punished for illegal publicity, look at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of the punishment has explained everything, there is no need to do more science and technology content.

I think any science and technology is not as good as the administrative penalty of the Trade and Industry Bureau, which can fully illustrate that the advertisements released by this company are illegal, the penalty information inquiry address

Unfortunately, the industrial and commercial penalties are not serious, only according to the business "reported" advertising costs of three times made the penalty, the fine is only 10,000 more than a box of products offline and they have to be four-figure, obviously such a penalty for the enterprise does not have any significance.

Enterprises faced with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of the penalty and did not learn a lesson, but instead took the "curve to get rich" strategy, and another stove opened a new company, typical of the policy under the countermeasures. This new company is used to this day Xi'an Taiqiantang Biotechnology Co., Ltd. continues to sell "vinegar and egg rejuvenation liquid", continue the same routine, and continue to repeat all the content of the last time they were punished, until they were punished again ...... the second time they were punished information Publication

Despite the "two into the Palace", despite more than the first penalty of 30,000 yuan, but the vinegar and egg return liquid is still sold, someone to buy ......

Seeing this, many people wonder why scammers dare to continue selling even though they have been penalized many times.

This could be because:

1. The results of the penalties are only on the relevant websites of the business sector, the dissemination is limited and it is difficult for the general public to find out the relevant information.

2. Despite this fine amounting to forty thousand dollars, the manufacturer's profit must have been far greater than that.

3. As it is mainly sold through online channels, essentially no physical economy is damaged, the company's official website labeled rectification, but in fact, Merchants can still search the site, and the ranking is much more than the official website.

It can be seen that for manufacturers, if the penalty is light, they will not stop their illegal acts. At most, they will change their companies and make profits as usual, for after all, the profits can be substantial.

So why do healthcare manufacturers favor microbusiness individuals so much?

Because there is no threshold to speak of to become a micro-business, anyone as long as there is WeChat, to become a micro-business in just a few minutes, and even do not have to pressure goods, as long as you send a circle of friends, you become an "agent".Essentially microbusinesses are just salespeople for a particular brand network.

What's wrong with doing that?

If you take a taxi and the driver tells you how skillful he is at driving and how many kilometers he can drive without any problem, but he doesn't have a driver's license, will you believe him? I believe that 99% of the people who hear that he doesn't have a driver's license will decide that his previous statements are all bragging.In fact most of the microbusinesses selling health care products are the same as drivers without driver's licenses; they have no qualifications whatsoever.

Micro-businesses are publicizing the miraculous efficacy of vinegar and egg rejuvenation liquid

Of course, we are not talking about all the micro-merchants, if a micro-merchant operator itself has a business license and food circulation and other qualifications that would be a different story, but most of the micro-merchants are not, they only have a micro-signal, selling goods and exaggerated propaganda, consumers once found to be cheated almost no way to file a complaint, but also can not be traced back to the source of law enforcement agencies are also at their wits' end. The sales behavior of micro-merchants itself drills the legal loophole, soDon't readily buy from unqualified micro-businesses, that's the best way to avoid being duped.

Illegal health products online sales rely on microbusinesses, offline routes remain deep

Around the friends in the see some health care scams, most people will wonder, so low-level scams why the elderly will believe it? In fact, it is the "intimidation method".

The street on which my workplace is located, despite being less than a kilometer, has two places selling health products under the banner of medical check-ups.Their ruse is free medical checkups, or so-called expert sit-ins.

When pyramid schemes were prevalent in Japan a few decades ago, they used the principle of a lottery, which is the same as today's "expert" free clinics and free medical checkups, which are sugar-coated for the older generation.

Photo credit: 123RF Gallery

They first use free cash to maximize the retention of the elderly in the store time, and then the use of fake experts and fake equipment to scare the elderly, because the physical examination of the elderly will certainly see their own various scary physical examination results, and then the crooks "miracle drug" began to debut, doubling the price of several times to sell to the elderly.

That's a killer. You think these people don't take into account that the children of the elderly can see through everything?

Of course, they are aware of this, but throughout the entire sales process, they have been using concern for the health of the elderly as the pretext. If their children question, deny or even criticize the elderly, the elders will think that their children do not care about their health or that they do not know anything about it because the medical check-ups are conducted by "doctors" in white coats, and the tests are conducted by "machines", which are obviously more "professional" than those of their children. Obviously, they are more "professional" than their children.

How can you avoid falling for illegal health products?

1. Limited capacity at the current level of science and technology.Don't even consider the ones that claim to cure all diseasesOnce you have found such publicity enterprises or operators, please report to the local industry and commerce department, do not feel that reporting is a very troublesome thing, in fact, it is very simple, and the Trade and Industry Bureau in accordance with the requirements is required to make a response.

2. Always remember.Health products do not have therapeutic propertiesPlease remember that there is no law in any country that recognizes health supplements as a cure.

3. Don't consider a microbusiness without a business license and relevant qualifications.Found that after being fooled you have no way to defend your rights, imagine negotiating to no avail when the other party pulls you black when ...... that taste is more angry than the loss of money.

4. What hospitals can't cure, health supplements can't cure even more.Health care products also need to be submitted for approval, no country allows a random prescription to be agreed for sale, and it is impossible to have something higher than medicine within the scope of health care products, it's like a bicycle is no more expensive or faster than an airplane.

5. Always look at the outer packaging of the product to see if it is qualifiedMany products are only food products, but they are displayed as drugs or health products in the publicity and advertising pages, for example, "Vinegar and Egg Return Liquid" is produced according to the standard of beverage.

6. Don't argue too much with the elders of the family once they have purchased theReport directly to the Trade and Industry Bureau, the explanations of the BIA staff are stronger than the painstaking science and criticism of the parents by their children.

7. Once free medical checkups appear near their homes, children should first examine them, and if they are for-profit medical checkups, as well as stores with merchandise (health care products, health food) hanging in the store, they should first tell the elderly that these are for-profit organizations and not medical institutions.

Finally, remember: the state's free medical checkups won't make you pay for health care products, and they are conducted by doctors and nurses from regular hospitals.
