Health and Body Care

          Health is the most important thing for everyone. English people say health is above wealth. If you are wealthy but not healthy you can’t be happy. People can buy different things but they can't buy their health.

Nowadays people want to be strong. If you want to keep fit you should remember some good rules. First of all, get up early and go to bed early to keep fit. Then, take regular exercises. It`s a good idea to take a cold shower every morning. Of course, you should eat healthy food. What food is thought to be good for health? First of all, it is fruit and vegetables. They have a lot of vitamins [‘vaitэmins]. Vegetables are really delicious if they are eaten (cooked) as salads.  Dairy products are also the right food. Milk, cheese, yoghurt, cottage cheese, cream and sour cream can help you grow and be in good shape. Meat is full of vitamins and other good things (proteins), too. Remember that too much food makes you fat. Too many sweets are bad for you, especially for your teeth. If you don`t want to have bad toothache clean your teeth twice a day. Don`t forget to wash your hands before you eat. Never smoke to keep fit.

           Sometimes people fall ill. For example, they can catch a cold. They have a sore throat, start coughing and sneezing. So people have to go to the doctor. The doctor examines the patient. He listens to his chest and lungs. He asks to breath in deeply and then to breath out. He takes his temperature. After that the doctor prescribes some medicine for the patient`s throat. Of course he tells his patient how many times a day to take the medicine. The patient should follow his advice and take the medicine regularly and he will feel better and recover soon.
