 Ten ideas for how these RSS feeds can be used to further Health Education & Promotion:

1. Recipe blogs can be shared with those who are trying to make healthy changes to their eating habits. Blogs with colorful photos and tempting-looking food may motivate change.
2. Recipe blogs also show both health educators and those they are educating new and interesting ways of eating.
3. Articles about corporate fitness may give the health educator new ideas to use in their own work...
4. or give an employee at a company without a health or wellness program the idea to suggest such a program at their office
5. Blogs about teen health may help a parent educate their teen.
6. Blogs about teen health may also help the teen educate themselves, as they may be more likely to read information online and try it, as opposed to listening to their parent.
7. The Huffington Post Healthy Living Blog covers many, many topics, and a health educator may gain new perspectives from reading such a variety of articles.
8. Government health websites showcase the latest research and are helpful to the public and those in health promotion.
9. Mindfulness and meditation are in right now, and have proven health benefits. A blog on mindfulness can be used by a health educator to introduce those unfamiliar with the technique.
10. Fitness blogs are fun for health educators and the people they're educating, because they showcase new and interesting workouts and motivation.
