For this assignment, you will select and research two of the three personal health issues listed that affect you or someone from your community. Then, you will complete a graphic organizer. Finally, you will write
a review of health products, health services, or preventative practices related to the health issues you
chose.
Background Information
The market is flooded with solutions to common health problems. Some solutions can be beneficial, and
some solutions can be a waste of money or even harmful in the long run. An informed decision-maker
evaluates the options and does appropriate research before making a decision. The ability to make
healthy decisions is a valuable and important skill to have.
For this project, you will submit two things:
1. A completed Health Decisions graphic organizer
2. A two- to three-sentence review of the health solutions you chose, and your reasoning for
choosing them
Step 1: Prepare for the project.
a) Read through the guide before you begin so you know the expectations for this project.
b) If anything is not clear to you, ask your teacher for assistance.
Step 2: Conduct research.
a) Find three products, services, or preventable practices for each health issue chosen, and
complete the graphic organizer.
b) Use sites such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or Consumer Reports
for product reviews, or consult a physician for more information.
c) Cite credible sources to back up your answer.
Step 3: Complete the graphic organizer provided.
a) Use your research to list and review three health solutions for each health issue.
b) Use your research to identify the most effective health solution for each health issue.
Step 4: Write summaries of the health solutions you chose.
a) Each summary should be two to three sentences long.
b) Include reasoning for your choices based on credible resources.

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.
