The rise of Dr Google: Half of Britons now get health advice online rather than seeing their GP
By
PUBLISHED:16:38 GMT, 20 March 2013 UPDATED:07:51 GMT, 21 March 2013
Britons are now more than twice as likely to search the internet for health advice as to consult their doctor,ralph lauren uk, a new study shows.
Half of adults go online for lifestyle and nutritional tips,cheap ghd straighteners, and 23 per cent rely on newspapers and magazines.
Just one in five people now turn to their GP to discuss medical matters - only slightly more than the proportion who speak to friends about health problems - 18 per cent.
As a result, people are making lifestyle changes for reasons other than doctor's advice, the study by campaign group Wholegrain Goodness found.
The reasons people make lifestyle changes include reaching a ‘,christian louboutin sale;certain age’,mulberry factory shop; - 49 per cent - seeing a photograph of themselves they do not like - 47 per cent - and falling ill - 37 per cent.
For women it was revealed that an unflattering photograph is a particularly influential driving factor in making lifestyle changes.
However, the research also showed that some people are unable to make appropriate changes because they are lacking in knowledge of medical issues.
In fact, one in five people - 19 per cent - admit they have ‘no idea’ if their diet is healthy, and half are clueless as to the benefits of eating fruit and vegetables.
A similar number,longchamp selfridges, 20 per cent, do not look at any nutritional labelling on food, while only a third check the calorie count or fat content.
Women's knowledge of health issues is typically better than men’s and older people - aged 55 plus - are generally better informed than the young.
The research also found that people aged under 45 are much less likely to talk to a doctor,Mulberry uk, than their parent's generation.
A significant 56 per cent of 25 to 34-year-olds consult the internet for health advice, and just 16 per cent would go to their GP.
Furthermore, 27 per cent of this age group say the internet is ‘most influential’ factor for them when they are making lifestyle choices.
A doctor is most influential for just 11 per cent of people.
Nutritionist Azmina Govindji, a member of the British Dietetic Association, said there are dangers in not getting the correct health advice.
She said: ‘The research shows people are relying less and less on their GP or dieticians when it comes to seeking medical and nutritional advice.
‘Instead they are embracing modern technology and researching information on the internet.
‘Others, meanwhile, are talking to family and friends, getting advice from them, and making changes to their exercise regimes or diets as a result,polo ralph lauren sale.
‘Anything that encourages people to make lifestyle changes for the better has to be a good thing.
‘However, it is essential the information they are relying upon is safe, accurate, and ideally, evidence-based,mulberry factory shop.’
The study also showed that six in ten people - 61 per cent - describe their diet as ‘healthy’ or ‘very healthy’ but many say there are barriers to improving.
A third - 35 per cent - believe health foods are too expensive, and a fifth - 20 per cent - say keeping fit is too time consuming.
Finally,longchamp le pliage, the research revealed that many people have been prompted to change their lifestyle by having children - 35 per cent - being pressured by friends - 26 per cent – or by getting married - 25 per cent.
These life-changing events typically cause us to reassess what we eat and how we stay active,Mulberry, the study of 2,000 adults suggested.
Dr Tom Brett, Medical Director at Lloydspharmacy Online Doctor said: ‘There is a wealth of useful information available on the internet to help people research their symptoms.
‘Websites such as NHS Choices and Lloydspharmacy Online Doctor offer practical advice on a wide range of health issues and are monitored and updated regularly by registered medical professionals.
‘If you do choose to go online for health advice then it’s extremely important to make sure that you use a credible website to carry out your research.
‘Even more vital is choosing a legitimate provider if you then go on to purchase medication online.’
Rory, please don't copy Tiger's vow of silence after recent troubles

So what face will the best golfer in the world present tomorrow when he re-emerges into public life for the first time since setting off the storm that has become 'McIl-gate?' Bruised and embittered from the experience, will he take the advice of Tiger Woods and learn to say nothing?
It’s certainly an option for the future, one practised by Woods and a number of other leading sportsmen.
But, in this period when he’s getting advice from all quarters, here’,louboutin uk;s mine for what it’s worth as the longest-standing member of the travelling British press corps: in Rory’s case,longchamp online, it would be a horrendous mistake.
Part of the reason this story has created quite so many headlines is because words were issued on McIlroy’s behalf that went against everything we know about him.
‘I’m not in a good place mentally,’,cheap ghd straighteners; he said as he walked off the course last week after eight holes of his second round in the Honda Classic. That’s the real Rory: honest to a fault. It was a mistake, but we can all forgive those.

As he showed with his wondrous form from August onwards last year,christian louboutin shoes, McIlroy has no problem coping with the pressure of being the world No 1.
Look at the pressure he brought upon himself on the final day of the Ryder Cup when he arrived barely in time for his singles match and still came up smelling of roses.
McIlroy might be the most popular man in the press room on both sides of the Atlantic and he’s got there by being himself. The last thing he should do is to try to be someone else.
Tomorrow morning, he should say he has got some teething problems but it was no excuse and he shouldn’t have walked out. Sorry about that, but at the end of the day I am only 23 and we all know what this maddening game is like. Time to move on and work through these infuriating swing issues.

Courageous Compton shows heart
The bravest man in golf? We’ve mentioned him before but it’s always a pleasure to talk about the charming and courageous American, Erik Compton.
Two heart transplants by the age of 30 and yet still he played on and earned himself full playing rights to compete on the PGA Tour.
Given all he has been through, perhaps it wasn’t surprising that Compton should enjoy his best day yet in golf on Sunday, when the wind was blowing 30mph and turning the venuefor the Honda Classic into a brutal test,mulberry bayswater.
It was a day for the strong of mind —and there was Compton breaking par to finish in a tie for fourth place and earn himself a cheque for $226,000.
Now 33, he truly is an inspiration.
Fair play to America’s best golfers. In 12 official PGA Tour events held on US soil since the Ryder Cup, Americans have won 11 of them,longchamp online.
And who is the only European to have won a title during this sequence? My cap is tipped in your direction if you come up with this name: one Jonas Blixt, from Sweden,ghd sale.
Quote of the week
'I'm very neutral on putter anchoring but the thing that would disturb me is if the PGA Tour took a different stance to the final position of the USGA. We’ve always played by one set of rules and we should stay that way.'
Jack Nicklaus puts forward a characteristically eloquent argument. The European Tour made their support of the proposed ban on anchoring official yesterday, backing the PGA Tour into a corner with their opposition to it.
Time for the rules makers on both sides of the Atlantic — the United States Golf Association and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club — to stand firm, therefore, and instigate the ban; time for the PGA Tour to follow Jack's advice.
Anyone following his enormously entertaining and wacky Twitter account will get a good idea of how much Englishman David Lynn is enjoying his rookie season on the PGA Tour.
On Saturday,Mulberry outlet, the 39-year-old played with Tiger Woods for the first time and posted a photograph of Tiger in triumphant pose, eating Lynn for breakfast. It didn’t turn out that way as the Stoke man outscored him by two strokes — and added another sub-par round on Sunday to finish tied fourth.
With $321,000 earned already from six events, he's made a wonderful start to ensuring this isn’t a one-season wonder.
