Tool of the Week: Consumer Reports Health and Consumer Reports

Himmelfarb Library has added subscriptions to two popular resources: Consumer Reports Health and Consumer Reports.

Consumer Reports Health

CR Health provides reviews of health-related products like blood pressure monitors, exercise equipment, air purifiers, diet plans and much more. CR Health also includes essential consumer health-level information and treatment ratings for over 300 common conditions; comparisons of Health insurance plans, hospitals and doctors; consumer-level review and analysis of over 4700 prescription drugs; and unbiased reviews of natural health ratings. Information in CR Health is geared towards patients, rather than clinicians.

Consumer Reports

One of the most trusted resources for information and advice on consumer products, Consumer Reports contains information that enables consumers to make better purchasing decisions on the products they are shopping for. Product reviews for over 5,000 cars, electronics, appliances, baby products, home products and more are available. In addition, users will find advice and tips on saving money on home improvement plans, how to shore up personal finances, ways to improve health and much more.

Both of these resources can be accessed through the Himmelfarb Library E-Journals page.
