Health and Medicine

I often find that health and medicine are somehow related to each other. In this age of 21st century, with advancement of medical science, our longevity has also increased considerably. But we must also ask ourselves whether, we are living a QUALITY LIFE or not.

Here comes the question, WHAT IS QUALITY LIFE? Just think upon the following and you will understand what it is.

• Having a tablet for common cold or leaving it to our immune system to cure it in a day or two.
• Having diet supplements apart from normal diet to get the extra proteins, vitamins or whatever.
• Living with medicine till the age of 85 or 90 and claiming longevity.

Are these instances of quality life? If you still disagree with me then unfortunately, it has become the order of the day. 

We always go for unwanted medications and thereby we do not allow the God given immunity to do its role. Or to put it in other words, we are impairing it and we are making our body dependent on medicines, which is a pity.

Proper balanced diet with all nutrition and exercise should keep the troubles for our body at bay. But we also have to admit the fact that everyday some new disease is also cropping, which is mainly because of our lifestyle.

Before turning to medicines directly, it is always worth trying the nature’s therapy for they don’t have any side effects and cure for some of the frequently occurring health problems are well established in it. In the upcoming topics, I’ll be giving maximum remedies for small health issues from various medicinal plants.

I hope everybody will be benefited and suggestions and criticisms are always welcome.
