Explain how people can avoid health fraud
What is People who commit health fraud depend on other people's lack of knowledge and their desperate desire to find a cure. Therefore, people can avoid health fraud by carefully evaluating the claims made by a treatment or product. People should also watch for the warning signs of health fraud, which include the claim that a product or treatment is the only possible cure for a health problem, the claim that a product or treatment will cure many different ailments, the claim that a product contains "special" or "secret" ingredients, and promised results that seem too good to be true.
