Avoiding Disease

"We know that eating well, exercising and not smoking fend off illness, but don't forget the importance of sleep, managing stress and love." David Katz, MD

Eating well, exercising and not smoking can fend off 80% of illnesses, according to Katz; but we also need to make sleep a priority.  Stress is inevitable, but we can learn to vent when we feel stress, and physical activity is one of the best ways to handle stress.  People with meaningful relationships are less likely to have heart attacks or cancer, and are more likely to recover if they do develop these diseases.  It is important for us to give love and receive love every day.  From where do you receive love?
