some conditions..

cancer. It can help treat depression, osteoporosis, and high blood pressure.

exercise is better than none.

Make Sleep a Priority.

commitment to get enough sleep at night.

Don’t smoke or use tobacco.Smoking and tobacco use are harmful


habits. They can cause heart disease and mouth, throat, or lung cancer.

Limit how much alcohol you drink.

more than 1 drink a day. Too much alcohol can damage your liver.
Instead drink 8 glasses of water everyday for hydration.

In addition to the factors listed above, you should make time for whole body
health. Visit your doctors for regular checkups. This includes your primary
doctor, as well as your dentist and eye doctor. Let your health benefits and
preventive care services work for you. Make sure you know what your
health insurance plan involves. Preventive care can detect disease or
prevent illness before they start. This includes certain doctor visits and
screenings.

wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.” Without your health, you
have nothing even if you have everything money can buy .
Better health is central to human happiness and well-being. Every part of
your life relies on you having good health. “Health is not a physical
accomplishment but the manifestation of our awareness of who we are and
integrity in living out of the knowledge.”
