Our health

Our health

Good health is very important for each person. Sometimes when we fell ill, we call a doctor, and he examines us and diagnoses the illness. When we have a headache, a stomach ache, a sore throat, a cold, or a pain in some parts of the body, the doctor takes our temperature and our pulse. He examines our heart, our lungs, and our stomach, prescribes medicine, and gives us a prescription, which we take to the chemist's. If you follow the doctor's orders, you’ll get better; if you disobey the doctor, you may get worse, and even die If we cannot get better at home we must go to the hospital.

Very often people ruin their health themselves. We all like tasty food and we stuff ourselves with all kinds of fat food, hamburgers and chips, pizza and hot dogs. But tasty things are not always healthy.
Such food leads to obesity and obesity causes serious health problems. So to avoid this we should give preferences to home- made meals with a lot of fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy products, rough sorts of bread, crops and etc.

Another serious problem of people in modern society is lack of exercise. People are always in a hurry but still they are not physically active. They stay too long in front of computers and TV-sets. Bad habits which are smoking, drinking alcohol, taking drugs also cause great problems with the health.

As for me I try to keep to healthy life style. First of all I am very careful about what I eat and drink. Spending long hours in front of my computer is my bad habit so also try to go in for sports – running, jogging, swimming or going to the gym. As long as I follow these simple habits I feel well and fit.
