The first thing that a patient who is prescribed a new medical drug wants to know is exactly to which extent such a drug has already been taken by others, and how effective it has proven to be. And there is really no faultless way to get that information. However, sites like Bodylogs are slowly surfacing – sites that make for knowing what others have to say about these medical drugs they have been prescribed by their physicians.

Because that is the essence of Bodylogs – it is a global database of user-generated health information. The site is split into three main sections (Nutrition, Treatments and Health Conditions) and each of these sections is subdivided into all the items that you can imagine. These are commented and discussed by users of the site, and the idea is to give every single person who has been prescribed a drug or taken a treatment a chance to say which degree that was successful, and what have been its side effects (if any).
