Much of the information on the internet is valuable; however, the internet also allows rapid and widespread distribution of false and misleading information” (Holt/Glencoe). This shows us that you need to be careful and completely validate any health information you find on the internet. “The information presented can help you decide whether the health information you find on the internet or receive by e-mail is likely to be reliable” (Holt/Glencoe). So, these are some things you need to consider to determine if the health information is reliable. “Who runs the website?... Who pays for the website?... How current is the information on the website? (Holt/Glencoe). For a start use these things to check if your health information is reliable, you never want to attempt to use false information. ]]> 2017-05-12 14:05:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jenna_gilbreath/8zmotx8c6ofd/wish/171492438 jenna_gilbreath https://padlet.com/jenna_gilbreath/8zmotx8c6ofd/wish/171492531 Before my step-mom decides to start a new diet she does extensive research on it. She never wants anything to go wrong. She typically finds new diets on the internet and then researches them. She looks ups reviews on it and other people’s experiences. This always works out well for her because she never has to worry about a bad outcome.  ]]> 2017-05-12 14:05:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jenna_gilbreath/8zmotx8c6ofd/wish/171492531
