“Your health is your wealth”

Image
We all know that one’s health is the most important thing. Just ask someone who has major health problems then you’ll realise that everything else, such as your job, social life etc.depends on it. Most things you enjoy doing require you to be physically able and whole both mentally and physically.  I believe wherever possible, do what you can to ensure you eat right, sleep enough, drink well and live with your health in mind. For the past 2 years, I’ve made a conscious effort to read and research the benefits of different foods, drinks and a healthy lifestyle. I actually did a self-analysis on my own food habits, regular diet and fitness. Needless to say, there was and still is room for change. It’s a process.
