There is a very comprehensive health directory called Slim-Fit-and-Healthy that I have just come across.

It takes in the conventional and mainstream as well as the ‘altenative’.

It is a directory not a website - it is a list of blogs and websites under different categories. You go to the directory and find blogs and websites under different topics (it could be acupuncture or nutrition and weight loss). You then browse the blogs and websites listed under the topic. It gives the google page rank for the sites and blogs listed: this indicates popularity - it is not a guide to the accuracy or helpfulness of the information provided.

There are far too many topics to work through on any one visit. It would take months to visit them all. From the topics I’ve visited and then I know about the listing look quite good. It even has a heading for plastic surgery.

It does contain links on beauty treatments and so forth as well. And it contains a heading for shopping specifically - sites and blogs dedicated to selling stuff related to health and beauty.

I think this would be a useful directory to have if you want to check out a new area of interest in the health field.

A note about blog reviews. I’ve decided to keep reviewing other blogs that I find interesting even though it may not provide immediately useful information about health. This is partly due to friends I have made on other blogs and because I think the blogs have good content. I’ve decided I’ll make the reviews extras to my other posts - that is I’ll keep up my normal posting schedule (usually three posts a week) so that if you aren’t interesed in reviews you can just not read them.
