take care of it to have a healthy life. There rise several

healthy diet? Do you exercise regularly? Do you drink
at least 8 glasses of water a day? Do you get enough
sleep every day? Answers to these questions leads us

physical shell to take you
through your life. If you
repeatedly abuse it with
unhealthy food, your shell
will wear out quickly. Life is

unnecessary health problems.

today for granted. Take
proper care of your body.

healthy eating and exercise, it
is also about having a positive
mental health, healthy selfimage

function – Do you know over

of water? Water is needed to
carry out our body functions,
remove waste and carry
nutrients and oxygen around
our body. Since we lose
water through urine, bowel
movements, perspiration
and breathing, we need to
replenish our water intake.

you don’t rest well, you
compensate by eating more
junk food. Get enough rest
