Women's health products should be chosen carefully. What should we pay attention to?

As modern people's awareness of health care continues to increase, more and more people know the importance of daily health care to physical health, especially for some female friends. Daily health care is very important to physical health. It can be said that health care products are the best choice for female friends to prolong life, beautify and lose weight. Therefore, it can be said that female health care products are also an indispensable product in women's lives.

So what kind of female health products are most beneficial to women's health? How should women choose health products in their daily lives? Are there any things that women should pay attention to when buying health products?

To this day, manufacturers of female health products from all over the country have been eyeing the fat piece of meat in the female market and are competing fiercely for it.

The reporter learned in an interview recently that women's health products on the market are mainly divided into beauty care, detoxification, blood tonic and weight loss categories, but the market popularity of each product varies. Among them, the most popular are beauty products. The huge market and stable sales have attracted many health care product companies to vigorously promote new or "revamp" such products. The second is detoxification products. In recent years, the concept of "detoxification and beauty" has been recognized by the majority of urban women, and "healthy detoxification can lead to true beauty and ease" has become a consensus among many consumers. Blood-enriching products, on the other hand, are seeking survival in a stable manner. It has been observed that the female blood-enriching market is relatively flat, and some old-fashioned blood-enriching products such as Red Heart K still occupy the majority of the female blood-enriching market. However, weight loss products are in full swing, and losing weight is the eternal pursuit of many women, so manufacturers will never give up this "fertile ground" easily. According to the salesperson at the health products counter on the first floor of Xidan Shopping Center, a new brand of slimming tea was selling like hot cakes a while ago.

In fact, many women's health products are not clearly labeled as to which category they belong to. For example, many "detoxification and beauty" products are mixed together. At the Jiashitang Pharmacy near the Beijing Trade Union Building, the clerk recommended to the reporter a certain brand of capsules that can both beautify the skin and help lose weight, and said that the effect is good.

Young and middle-aged people are the main consumer group

The reporter learned from the several pharmacies he visited that most of the people who buy women's health products are middle-aged and young people. Among them, detoxification and beauty products are mainly for women around 30 years old, while weight loss products are for girls in their twenties. According to a clerk at Xidan Jinxiang Pharmacy, many students often come to buy weight loss tea. Blood-enriching products are more targeted and have a more complex consumer group, including people of all ages, generally those suffering from nutritional anemia.

Moreover, most female consumers who frequently buy a certain category or brand do so because they are "tempted" by "magical" advertisements. The second most common reason is that they listen to the "advocacy" of friends or colleagues and want to give it a try. Only a small number of them do not know where to start when faced with a wide range of products and consult a doctor. At the Baitasi Pharmacy, the reporter met a girl in her twenties who, after "patrolling" the shelves of slimming tea for half a day, had to ask the salesperson for "help." During the conversation with the girl, I learned that there are too many advertisements for weight loss products nowadays. When I went to the drugstore and saw even more brands, I really didn’t know which one to buy.

Experts advise careful selection of women's health products

As the competition for the female health care products market becomes increasingly fierce, the "miraculous" advertisements or promotional methods of various manufacturers make it difficult to distinguish the authenticity. Professor Nan, a consulting expert at Baitasi Pharmacy, told reporters that many consumers now buy health care products without thinking twice and just act on impulse, ignoring the different physiological and pathological conditions of each person. In fact, when choosing a product, you should base it on whether it is suitable for you and check the sugar content and ingredients of the product to see if it meets your needs. For example, rhubarb is a substance containing anthraquinone components, which is beneficial for people in need. However, if it is not needed, blindly taking it for a long time will suppress the body's own immunity. Over time, it may also affect the body's absorption of certain beneficial substances.

In fact, health food is essentially just a kind of food. Although it has certain "effects", it is not "effectiveness". In pursuit of profits, some health food manufacturers often exaggerate the efficacy of their products. Consumers should not be credulous to avoid being deceived.

In addition, Professor Nan also said that health products generally have specific applicable groups of people and are not suitable for everyone. Consumers are advised to make purchases under the guidance of health experts or doctors. When consuming, you should also strictly follow the amount indicated on the product label, otherwise it may have the opposite effect.

Here I would like to remind everyone that health care products are not medicines and cannot cure diseases. If you want to use health care products to cure diseases, it can be said that it is almost impossible. Health care products are just health care products, and their most common function is health care.
