Health is above wealth.

Our health depends on many things: the food we eat, our good or bed habits, our physical activity and environmental influence.

Obesity and physical inactivity are known from ancient times. Besides such bad habits as smoking and drinking too much alcohol, the surprising ―danger‖ of sleeping too much or too little, eating between meals and skipping breakfast can double the chance of dying or lead to different diseases.

Of course sleeping too much or too little, snacking and skipping breakfast are not quite as deadly as smoking, obesity and drinking. But they are indicative dangerously chaotic lifestyles.

Some people worry about their weight and follow a calorie-controlled diet. They eat a low-fat food and more fibre. Eat is thought to be the cause of disease. Besides, people believe that they should exercise more not to be fat. Some people have started counting the calories they eat every day. So, that they can try to take in less calories and lose weight. This is called a calorie-controlled diet.

Such bad habits as smoking, drinking too much alcohol can cause a cough, a headache, some diseases, slow reactions and even loss of memory. Bad habits make teeth yellow, skin unhealthy, speech unclear and brain centers sleep.

The role of sports is significant as it gives good physiological results on the body. Good exercises increase heart action and blood circulation. They strengthen the nerves. Taking long walks in the open air is also important. The sun and the air are good medicines. It’s interesting to know that bees drivers who sit all day have heart diseases twice as more than conductors who move all day. Physically inactive people get old earlier than those who exercise. If a man does daily exercises he feels refreshed and has good posture. And good posture lifts spirits. Poor posture often causes fatigue.

Every one should remember the Latin saying ―Mens sana in corpore sano‖. A healthy lifestyle is ― a good remedy‖ for the protection of our organism against diseases.

It’s well known that it’s easier to prevent a disease than to cure it. Doctors must promote a healthy lifestyle and serve an example for other people.
