I would say the best answer would be B) is the information up to date?
The other three aren’t necessary (illustrations, online, and being in US).
It needs to be current and accurate.

Answer:

B.) Is the information up to date?

Step-by-step explanation:

When researching health information one has to be very careful and evaluate if the information is reliable. This is because health information directly reflects on your safety, so it can be very dangerous for you if you have access to information that is unreliable and does not show correct information. Whenever you find a health article you should check if the information is up to date. This is because all the time new discoveries are released and some concepts are obsolete. If the information is updated, the article is more likely to be reliable.
