October is a month full of health observances.  But, everyday should be a day to observe and preserve your health.  Health Literacy is part of October  and it is important in maintaining adequate homeostasis - (your normal health).

What is Health Literacy? 

Health Literacy Month is a time for individuals to promote the importance of understandable and accurate health information.  Only research, review, and internalize information from expert web pages on the Internet.  Expert web pages are reviewed and updated by medical experts and clinicans in healthcare.  For instance, research an illness or problem at the Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Federal Government, and your local hospital web pages.  Most of all, contact your health professional for examinations and treatment interventions.
