October is Health Literacy Month—a time to promote the importance of understandable health communication. Efforts to increase health literacy are especially important with regard to complementary and integrative health because misinformation about these topics is widespread.
To help people better understand the science of health, NCCIH has put together a collection of online resources called Know the Science. Topics include:
- Understanding and interpreting health news stories
- How to read a scientific paper
- Interactions between drugs and dietary supplements
- Misunderstood words about complementary health approaches
- Understanding risk
- Finding and evaluating online resources
So what are you waiting for? Dive in, and get to know the science.
