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
