Health Advice

One of the best pieces of advice regarding health I read

Is to not trust confident certainty, instead

To trust people who are willing to accept

That some things are not known for certain yet

If something appears too good to be true

Especially if it carries a hefty price tag too

You are given the piece of advice with overconfidence borderline

You should know that they have something else in mind

That is not your health, with a grain of salt take that advice

For marginal benefit you do not want to pay a huge price

*

If someone tells you honestly that they do not know

Whether a health care product is beneficial, it goes to show

That they have no vested interests, no hidden agenda in mind

If you take their advice, unexpected positive results you might find

*

In medicine absolute terms we almost never use

We spell out risks and benefits and let you choose
