1.

“Our food should be our medicine and our medicine should be our food.”

Hippocrates

Today, we often cure sickness and disease with pills and treatments. It has to change. By maintaining a good and healthy diet and combine it with exercise, we can effectively prevent sickness.

2.

“Those who do not find time for exercise will have to find time for illness.”

Earl of Derby

“I don’t have time to exercise” is a common excuse. What many people don’t realise is that by exercising we get more energy, can work more effectively and avoid illness. By spending some time exercising, we’ll end up saving time.

3.

“Exercise is good for your mind, body, and soul.”

Susie Michelle Cortright

By exercising we don’t only become strong, fit and resistant to illness, but also more relaxed and happy. To invest in your health is therefore not only a way to become more good-looking or less ill, but also a way to increase your overall enjoyment of life.

4.

“Our health always seems much more valuable after we lose it.”

Unknown

Health is one of the things that is often not appreciated until we lose it. Therefore, make sure to not only be healthy but also to enjoy your health while you can.

5.

“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.”

Jim Rohn

You only have one body. If you destroy it through smoking, drinking in abundance or eating the wrong food all the time, you’ll lose your health. And, as said above, it is often when we lose our health that we learn to value it.
