Good health depends on five factors :

• Balanced diet

• Proper and regular exercise

• Positive thinking

• Timely medical checkup

• Supplementation

1) Balanced Diet–A diet comprising all the basic nutrients in the food like carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, fat, and water in the right proportion. These are not produced in our body, so we must take from food.

2) Proper and regular exercise - To burn the calories and for the proper functioning of the body, exercise is a must. It may include yoga, light exercise, brisk walk, etc.

3) Positive thinking - is a must because negative thinking will release negative hormones like cortisol which may affect the proper functioning of the brain and which in turn will affect the functioning of glands in the body.

4) Timely medical checkup - It is necessary to know any kind of anomaly in the body in the initial stage so that we can get it treated in the nascent stage itself.
