Anyone else got any comments for this?

Just a suggestion though, if you can change the heading, I think it'll be a lot less vague if you put the title as "The Helpful Sites List for healthy living & lifestyle". I honestly came here under the impression that you'd give basic tips for living and lifestyle and wasn't expecting a list of websites of healthy living and lifestyle.

Medically specific sites:
Accurate and detailed listing of medications:
http://www.rxlist.com/
http://www.drugs.com/

Up to date medical issues and articles made by doctors and experts for the average joe:
http://www.webmd.com/

RE: The Help List (Healthy Living & Lifestyle) - Sam - 08-04-2010

Thank you kindly for your comments, I will add those sites now. Thank you!

You're welcome. 5 Stars.

PS: I think self-motivation websites would also be a meaningful addition to the list, after all, where the mind goes, the body, and mental hygiene is also a factor in health as well as sanitation and physical health. Just an idea though.

RE: The Helpful Sites List for healthy living & lifestyle - Sam - 08-04-2010

Yeh that's a great suggestion. I will see if I can find some good ones.

If you are a health freak and wanna check about the latest research on medicines, diseases, treatment suggestions, etc. then also try to visit nih and cdc websites. There you will get answers of most of your health related querries.
