It is my hope that the material presented throughout this class will have made you a more informed (and perhaps more skeptical) consumer of health related information. Hopefully it will also have given you a great deal of “food for thought” when it comes to your own health and the health of those you care about. Speaking of which, perhaps you could now be considered somewhat of an “authority” on health amongst your friends and family (at least for the purposes of this paper). Given that, what are the 4 most important things you feel you have learned from the class in Health Psychology? Please describe these things, and briefly describe why they are so important. If a person needed to change their lifestyle in some way to make these things more possible, what is the best piece of advice you could give them on HOW to make that change happen? What does the literature? Include at least 1-2 peer-reviewed research articles to support your ideas.
