Health literacy refers to the degree to which people can obtain, process and understand basic health information and services needed to make appropriate health decisions. Previous studies have linked health literacy to health outcomes. The aim of this study wasto analyze whether there weredifferences in health literacy on the basis of perceived health. To do this, a descriptive study was performed in a sample of 331 subjects over the age of 55. To measure the level of health literacy, theEuropean Health Literacy Survey (HLS-EU-q16)questionnaire was administered to them and the level of health perceivedwas evaluated by theGoldberg General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28).56% of the adult population obtained sufficient levels of health literacy. No staticallysignificant differences were foundedbetween health literacy and health perceived. In conclusion, the high levels of health literacy founded and the absence of relation between health literacy and perceived health contrast with other similar studies. As a limitation of the study, theresults cannot be used because the sample of this study are people over the age of 55 witha mediumsocio-cultural level. For further studies it is recommendable the use of objectives test which evaluate the level of health literacy and health outcomesand the use of a sample with different sociocultural levels
