If you are sure you want to go into healthcare, it is a very robust industry. If you are not sure and want to keep your options open with potfolio management in mind, well, consumer goods is very generic and transferable to the majority of companies under the sun.
Easy or hard to grasp is relative, and above all, irrelevant to the decision.
Personally, I would go consumer goods for your exact reason. Unless you're interested in healthcare and can stand reading medical journals/studying reimbursement issues/etc. I, for one, can't stand it. Not sure what position or company you're looking at, but If you have to sell in the opportunity to the PE shops/acquiring parties/etc., it's very difficult to do so if you just don't understand the company & industry.
