Optimal Health

            Not again, you would say...as if the newspapers, magazines, the TV etc. is not enough. However since I made a promise with myself to stick to Optimal Health, thought, would take you, the reader along. After all what matters is what a regular guy does to his own body (read brain) that he carries till he bids goodbye. When one can tolerate irate customers and many such kinds in job or business just because he knows the outcome-Money, why can't he afford to get uncomfortable with certain healthy practices ( try exercising regularly or control those mean helping of ice-cream that you are so used to).
                So what is Optimal Health ? It is the best health you are capable of, given your past and your genetic heritage (Dr. Duke Johnson, MD). It could also be defined as striking a right balance between physical, emotional and spiritual health. And it starts with (on a daily basis)
1. Right food ( complete with macro and micro nutrients) at right time.
2. Exercise.
3. 6-8 hours of adequate rest (sleep)
4. Supplements (Natural)
5. Positive Mental Attitude.
          With every aricle that one reads, screaming about Indians being pre-disposed to heart ailments thanks to the genes we carry, its high time we really take care of ourselves. We were 'Diabetes Capital' last year and we are heading towards becoming  'The Heart Attack Capital' by 2020. Will keep you posted on these issues..as I've got to rush.
