“…Sixth, the REALM may not assess all aspects of health literacy, such as comprehension of printed material and information seeking (Dumenci et al, 2013), which may limit the generalizability of our findings. The strengths of our study include the sizable racially and socioeconomically diverse sample of adults; the assessment of DASH scores quantitatively using the Mellen formula (Mellen et al, 2008); the inclusion of dietary supplement data, particularly given their use being more common among people with higher literacy and educational attainment (Duffy et al, 2017); and the examination of health numeracy in addition to health literacy.…”

Background: Health literacy (HL) and health numeracy (HN), the ability to interpret and act on quantitative health information, are important for hypertension self-management such as limiting sodium intake. We examined associations of HL, HN, and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet accordance. Participants: Among 1,073 hypertensive adults enrolled in a Baltimore, Maryland–based cohort study, we performed a cross-sectional analysis. Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine (REALM) measured HL and Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults (TOFHLA) numeracy score measured HN. Method: DASH accordance was based on nine key nutrients. Linear regression models estimated associations of HL and HN with DASH total and sodium score, inclusive of dietary supplement data. Results: In our sample, 39% of participants were male, 66% were Black, 40.2% lived in poverty, and 29.5% reported food insecurity. Fully, 32.5% had limited HL and 14.5% had limited HN. Mean DASH score overall was 2 (range = 0–7.5); only 6.9% were DASH accordant (score ≥4.5). In age and sex adjusted models, higher REALM was associated with a higher DASH score in the overall sample; the relationship of HN with DASH was statistically significant among White but not Black participants. Educational attainment appeared to explain both findings. There were no significant associations between HL or HN and DASH sodium scores. Conclusion: Differences in educational attainment explained the relation of higher HL and greater accordance to the DASH diet in a population of hypertensive adults. Understanding these factors is vital to reducing disparities in hypertension and its sequelae.

“…HMP is not part of conventional or western medicine but is categorized as a Complementary health Approaches (CHA). HMP is frequently used to prevent illness or maintain health rather than to treat illnesses (Craft et al, 2015;Duffy et al, 2017). HMP is the most commonly used CHA in many countries such as the United Kingdom (Posadzki et al, 2013), Taiwan (Chang, Liu, & Chen, 2014), and Malaysia (IPH, 2015).…”

Introduction: Facing extensive competition, the marketers and producers of herbal medicine products (HMP) should pay more concern to maintaining repeat purchases and keeping customers loyal with their products. Purpose: This study aims to (1) propose the dimensions of consumer perceived value (CPV) for HMP; and (2) propose a conceptual framework to test CPV influences on consumption behavior, repurchase intention and customer loyalty. Methodology: The value dimensions of HMP included functional value (price), functional value (quality), social value, emotional value (feeling), and conditional value (holistic treatment value). CPV was proposed as an antecedent of repurchase intention and customer loyalty. Implications: A conceptual framework with a second-order multi-dimensional CPV as the antecedent of repurchase intention and customer loyalty was proposed. This article proposed a conceptual framework to analyze the influence of value dimensions on HMP. This could provide useful theoretical insights into the values perceived in HMP consumption behavior.
